GRIFFIN-AMERICAN HEALTHCARE REIT III, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2020 and 2019
The use of the words “we,” “us” or “our” refers to Griffin-American Healthcare REIT III, Inc. and its subsidiaries, including Griffin-American Healthcare REIT III Holdings, LP, except where otherwise noted.
1. Organization and Description of Business
Griffin-American Healthcare REIT III, Inc., a Maryland corporation, was incorporated on January 11, 2013 and therefore, we consider that our date of inception. We were initially capitalized on January 15, 2013. We invest in a diversified portfolio of real estate properties, focusing primarily on medical office buildings, hospitals, skilled nursing facilities, senior housing and other healthcare-related facilities. We also operate healthcare-related facilities utilizing the structure permitted by the REIT Investment Diversification and Empowerment Act of 2007, which is commonly referred to as a “RIDEA” structure (the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code, authorizing the RIDEA structure were enacted as part of the Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008). We also originate and acquire secured loans and may also originate and acquire other real estate-related investments on an infrequent and opportunistic basis. We generally seek investments that produce current income. We qualified to be taxed as a real estate investment trust, or REIT, under the Code for federal income tax purposes beginning with our taxable year ended December 31, 2014, and we intend to continue to qualify to be taxed as a REIT.
On February 26, 2014, we commenced a best efforts initial public offering, or our initial offering, in which we offered to the public up to $1,900,000,000 in shares of our common stock. As of April 22, 2015, the deregistration date of our initial offering, we had received and accepted subscriptions in our initial offering for 184,930,598 shares of our common stock, or $1,842,618,000, excluding shares of our common stock issued pursuant to our initial distribution reinvestment plan, or the Initial DRIP. As of April 22, 2015, a total of $18,511,000 in distributions were reinvested that resulted in 1,948,563 shares of our common stock being issued pursuant to the Initial DRIP.
On March 25, 2015, we filed a Registration Statement on Form S-3 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, to register a maximum of $250,000,000 of additional shares of our common stock to be issued pursuant to the Initial DRIP, or the 2015 DRIP Offering. We commenced offering shares pursuant to the 2015 DRIP Offering following the deregistration of our initial offering. Effective October 5, 2016, we amended and restated the Initial DRIP, or the Amended and Restated DRIP, to amend the price at which shares of our common stock are issued pursuant to the 2015 DRIP Offering. We continued to offer shares of our common stock pursuant to the 2015 DRIP Offering until the termination and deregistration of such offering on March 29, 2019. As of March 29, 2019, a total of $245,396,000 in distributions were reinvested that resulted in 26,386,545 shares of common stock being issued pursuant to the 2015 DRIP Offering.
On January 30, 2019, we filed a Registration Statement on Form S-3 under the Securities Act to register a maximum of $200,000,000 of additional shares of our common stock to be issued pursuant to the Amended and Restated DRIP, or the 2019 DRIP Offering. We commenced offering shares pursuant to the 2019 DRIP Offering on April 1, 2019, following the deregistration of the 2015 DRIP Offering. As of March 31, 2020, a total of $54,385,000 in distributions were reinvested that resulted in 5,796,607 shares of common stock being issued pursuant to the 2019 DRIP Offering. We collectively refer to the Initial DRIP portion of our initial offering, the 2015 DRIP Offering and the 2019 DRIP Offering as our DRIP Offerings.
We conduct substantially all of our operations through Griffin-American Healthcare REIT III Holdings, LP, or our operating partnership. We are externally advised by Griffin-American Healthcare REIT III Advisor, LLC, or Griffin-American Advisor, or our advisor, pursuant to an advisory agreement, or the Advisory Agreement, between us and our advisor. The Advisory Agreement was effective as of February 26, 2014 and had a one-year initial term, subject to successive one-year renewals upon the mutual consent of the parties. The Advisory Agreement was last renewed pursuant to the mutual consent of the parties on February 11, 2020 and expires on February 26, 2021. Our advisor uses its best efforts, subject to the oversight, review and approval of our board of directors, or our board, to, among other things, research, identify, review and make investments in and dispositions of properties and securities on our behalf consistent with our investment policies and objectives. Our advisor performs its duties and responsibilities under the Advisory Agreement as our fiduciary. Our advisor is 75.0% owned and managed by wholly owned subsidiaries of American Healthcare Investors, LLC, or American Healthcare Investors, and 25.0% owned by a wholly owned subsidiary of Griffin Capital Company, LLC, or Griffin Capital, or collectively, our co-sponsors.

GRIFFIN-AMERICAN HEALTHCARE REIT III, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) — (Continued)

We currently operate through six reportable business segments: medical office buildings, hospitals, skilled nursing facilities, senior housing, senior housing — RIDEA and integrated senior health campuses. As of March 31, 2020, we owned and/or operated 98 properties, comprising 102 buildings, and 118 integrated senior health campuses including completed development projects, or approximately 13,841,000 square feet of gross leasable area, or GLA, for an aggregate contract purchase price of $3,002,533,000. In addition, as of March 31, 2020, we also owned a real estate-related investment purchased for $60,429,000.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The summary of significant accounting policies presented below is designed to assist in understanding our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. Such condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes thereto are the representations of our management, who are responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP, in all material respects, and have been consistently applied in preparing our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.
Basis of Presentation
Our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include our accounts and those of our operating partnership, the wholly owned subsidiaries of our operating partnership and all non-wholly owned subsidiaries in which we have control, as well as any VIEs in which we are the primary beneficiary. We evaluate our ability to control an entity, and whether the entity is a VIE and we are the primary beneficiary, by considering substantive terms of the arrangement and identifying which enterprise has the power to direct the activities of the entity that most significantly impacts the entity’s economic performance.
We operate and intend to continue to operate in an umbrella partnership REIT structure in which our operating partnership, or wholly owned subsidiaries of our operating partnership and all non-wholly owned subsidiaries of which we have control, will own substantially all of the interests in properties acquired on our behalf. We are the sole general partner of our operating partnership, and as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we owned greater than a 99.99% general partnership interest therein. Our advisor is a limited partner, and as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, owned less than a 0.01% noncontrolling limited partnership interest in our operating partnership.
Because we are the sole general partner of our operating partnership and have unilateral control over its management and major operating decisions (even if additional limited partners are admitted to our operating partnership), the accounts of our operating partnership are consolidated in our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. All intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.
Interim Unaudited Financial Data
Our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by us in accordance with GAAP in conjunction with the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC. Certain information and footnote disclosures required for annual financial statements have been condensed or excluded pursuant to SEC rules and regulations. Accordingly, our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments which are, in our view, of a normal recurring nature and necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim period. Interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year; such full year results may be less favorable.
In preparing our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, management has evaluated subsequent events through the financial statement issuance date. We believe that although the disclosures contained herein are adequate to prevent the information presented from being misleading, our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the SEC on March 26, 2020.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, as well as the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, at the date of our condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported

10


GRIFFIN-AMERICAN HEALTHCARE REIT III, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) — (Continued)

amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include, but are not limited to, the initial and recurring valuation of certain assets acquired and liabilities assumed through property acquisitions, allowance for credit losses, impairment of long-lived assets and contingencies. These estimates are made and evaluated on an on-going basis using information that is currently available as well as various other assumptions believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates, perhaps in material adverse ways, and those estimates could be different under different assumptions or conditions.

Tenant and Resident Receivables and Allowances
On January 1, 2020, we adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, Accounting Standards Codification, or ASC, Topic 326, Financial Instruments Credit Losses, or ASC Topic 326. We adopted ASC Topic 326 using the modified retrospective approach whereby the cumulative effect of adoption was recognized on the adoption date and prior periods were not restated. There was no net cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings as of January 1, 2020.
Resident receivables are carried net of an allowance for credit losses. An allowance is maintained for estimated losses resulting from the inability of residents and payors to meet the contractual obligations under their lease or service agreements. Substantially all of such allowances are recorded as direct reductions of resident fees and services revenue as contractual adjustments provided to third-party payors or implicit price concessions in our accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). Our determination of the adequacy of these allowances is based primarily upon evaluations of historical loss experience, the residents’ financial condition, security deposits, cash collection patterns by payor and by state, current economic conditions, future expectations in estimating credit losses and other relevant factors.
Tenant receivables and unbilled deferred rent receivables are recognized as direct reductions of real estate revenue in our accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).
As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had $10,809,000 and $11,435,000, respectively, in allowances, which were determined necessary to reduce receivables by our expected future credit losses. For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, we increased allowances by $3,826,000 and $3,244,000, respectively, and reduced allowances for collections or adjustments by $2,478,000 and $1,227,000, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, $1,974,000 and $1,243,000, respectively, of our receivables were written off against the related allowances.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
We periodically evaluate our long-lived assets, primarily consisting of investments in real estate that we carry at our historical cost less accumulated depreciation, for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that its carrying value may not be recoverable. Indicators we consider important and that we believe could trigger an impairment review include, among others, the following:
significant negative industry or economic trends;
a significant underperformance relative to historical or projected future operating results; and
a significant change in the extent or manner in which the asset is used or significant physical change in the asset.
For the three months ended March 31, 2020, we determined that one skilled nursing facility was impaired, and as such, we recognized an impairment charge of $3,711,000 to reduce the carrying value of such asset to $3,840,000. The fair value of such property was based on its projected sales price obtained from an independent third party using comparable market information, which was considered a Level 2 measurement within the fair value hierarchy. No impairment charges on long-lived assets were recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2019.
Properties Held for Sale
A property or a group of properties is required to be reported in discontinued operations in the statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) for current and prior periods if the disposal represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results when either: (i) the component has been disposed of or (ii) is

12


GRIFFIN-AMERICAN HEALTHCARE REIT III, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) — (Continued)

classified as held for sale. At such time as a property is held for sale, such property is carried at the lower of: (i) its carrying amount or (ii) fair value less costs to sell. In addition, a property being held for sale ceases to be depreciated. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, we determined that the fair value of one integrated senior health campus that was held for sale was lower than its carrying amount, and as such, we recognized an impairment charge of $1,391,000 to reduce the carrying value of such asset to $350,000. The fair value of such asset was based on its projected sales price obtained from an independent third party using comparable market information, which was considered a Level 2 measurement within the fair value hierarchy. No impairment charges on properties held for sale were recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2019.
Debt Security Investment, Net
We classify our marketable debt security investment as held-to-maturity because we have the positive intent and ability to hold the security to maturity, and we have not recorded any unrealized holding gains or losses on such investment. Our held-to-maturity security is recorded at amortized cost and adjusted for the amortization of premiums or discounts through maturity. Prior to the adoption of ASC Topic 326, a loss was recognized in earnings when we determined declines in the fair value of marketable securities were other-than-temporary. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, we did not incur any such losses. Effective January 1, 2020, we evaluated our debt security investment for expected future credit loss in accordance with ASC Topic 326. There was no net cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings as of January 1, 2020. See Note 4, Debt Security Investment, Net, for a further discussion.
Accounts Payable and Accrued Liabilities
As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, accounts payable and accrued liabilities primarily includes reimbursement of payroll related costs to the managers of our senior housing — RIDEA facilities and integrated senior health campuses of $33,472,000 and $24,118,000, respectively, insurance reserves of $33,237,000 and $35,581,000, respectively, accrued capital expenditures to unaffiliated third parties of $22,398,000 and $25,019,000, respectively, accrued property taxes of $15,885,000 and $14,501,000, respectively, and accrued distributions of $9,955,000 and $9,974,000, respectively.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncement
In March 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update, or ASU, 2020-04, Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform of Financial Reporting, or ASU 2020-04, which provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contract modifications, hedging relationships and other transactions, subject to meeting certain criteria. ASU 2020-04 applies to the aforementioned transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of the reference rate reform. ASU 2020-04 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after March 12, 2020 and through December 31, 2022. We are currently evaluating this guidance to determine the impact on our disclosures.

For the three months ended March 31, 2020, we, through a majority-owned subsidiary of Trilogy Investors, LLC, or Trilogy, of which we owned 67.6% at the time of acquisition, acquired a land parcel in Ohio for a contract purchase price of $1,693,000 plus closing costs and paid to our advisor an acquisition fee of 2.25% of the portion of the contract purchase price of such land parcel attributed to our ownership interest.
4. Debt Security Investment, Net
On October 15, 2015, we acquired a commercial mortgage-backed debt security, or debt security, from an unaffiliated third party. The debt security bears an interest rate on the stated principal amount thereof equal to 4.24% per annum, the terms of which security provide for monthly interest-only payments. The debt security matures on August 25, 2025 at a stated amount of $93,433,000, resulting in an anticipated yield-to-maturity of 10.0% per annum. The debt security was issued by an unaffiliated mortgage trust and represents a 10.0% beneficial ownership interest in such mortgage trust. The debt security is subordinate to all other interests in the mortgage trust and is not guaranteed by a government-sponsored entity.
As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the carrying amount of the debt security investment was $73,476,000 and $72,717,000, respectively, net of unamortized closing costs of $1,335,000 and $1,375,000, respectively. Accretion on debt security for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 was $799,000 and $725,000, respectively, which is recorded to real estate revenue in our accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). Amortization expense of closing costs for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 was $40,000 and $33,000, respectively, which is recorded against real estate revenue in our accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). In accordance with ASC Topic 326, we evaluated credit quality indicators such as the agency ratings and the underlying collateral of such investment in order to determine expected future credit loss. No credit loss was recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2020.

8. Lines of Credit and Term Loans
2019 Corporate Line of Credit

The 2019 Corporate Line of Credit consists of a senior unsecured revolving credit facility in the initial aggregate amount of $150,000,000 and a senior unsecured term loan facility in the initial aggregate amount of $480,000,000. We may obtain up to $25,000,000 in the form of standby letters of credit and up to $25,000,000 in the form of swing line loans. The maximum principal amount of the 2019 Corporate Line of Credit may be increased by up to $370,000,000, for a total principal amount of $1,000,000,000, subject to: (i) the terms of the 2019 Corporate Credit Agreement; and (ii) at least five business days’ prior written notice to Bank of America.

On September 5, 2019, we, through Trilogy RER, LLC and certain subsidiaries of Trilogy OpCo, LLC, Trilogy RER, LLC, and Trilogy Pro Services, LLC, or the 2019 Trilogy Co-Borrowers, entered into an amended and restated loan agreement, or the 2019 Trilogy Credit Agreement, with KeyBank, as administrative agent; CIT Bank, N.A., as revolving agent; Regions Bank, as syndication agent; KeyBanc Capital Markets, Inc., or KeyBanc Capital Markets, as co-lead arranger and co-book runner; Regions Capital Markets, as co-lead arranger and co-book runner; Bank of America, as co-documentation agent; The Huntington National Bank, as co-documentation agent; and a syndicate of other banks, as lenders named therein, to amend and restate the terms of an existing credit agreement in order to obtain a senior secured revolving credit facility with an aggregate maximum principal amount of $360,000,000, consisting of: (i) a $325,000,000 secured revolver supported by real estate assets and ancillary business cash flow and (ii) a $35,000,000 accounts receivable revolving credit facility supported by eligible accounts receivable, or the 2019 Trilogy Credit Facility. We may obtain up to $35,000,000 in the form of swing line loans and up to $15,000,000 in the form of standby letters of credit under the 2019 Trilogy Credit Facility. The proceeds of the 2019 Trilogy Credit Facility may be used for acquisitions, debt repayment and general corporate purposes. The maximum principal amount of the 2019 Trilogy Credit Facility may be increased by up to $140,000,000, for a total principal amount of $500,000,000, subject to: (i) the terms of the 2019 Trilogy Credit Agreement and (ii) at least 10 business days’ prior written notice to KeyBank.

At our option, the 2019 Trilogy Credit Facility bears interest at per annum rates equal to (a) LIBOR plus 2.75% for LIBOR Rate Loans, as defined in the 2019 Trilogy Credit Agreement, and (b) for Base Rate Loans, as defined in the 2019 Trilogy Credit Agreement, 1.75% plus the greater of: (i) the fluctuating annual rate of interest announced from time to time by KeyBank as its prime rate, (ii) 0.5% above the Federal Funds Effective Rate, as defined in the 2019 Trilogy Credit Agreement, and (iii) 1.00% above the one-month LIBOR. Accrued interest on the 2019 Trilogy Credit Facility is payable monthly. The loans may be repaid in whole or in part without prepayment fees or penalty, subject to certain conditions. We are required to pay fees on the unused portion of the lenders’ commitments under the 2019 Trilogy Credit Facility, with respect to any day during a calendar quarter, at a per annum rate equal to (a) 0.15% if the sum of the Aggregate Real Estate Revolving Credit Obligations, as defined in the 2019 Trilogy Credit Agreement, outstanding on such day is greater than 50% of the commitments or 0.20% if the sum of the Aggregate Real Estate Revolving Credit Obligations on such day is less than or equal to 50% of the commitments, and (b) 0.15% if the sum of the Aggregate A/R Revolving Credit Obligations, as defined in the 2019 Trilogy Credit Agreement, outstanding on such day is greater than 50% of the commitments or 0.20% if the sum of the Aggregate A/R Revolving Credit Obligations on such day is less than or equal to 50% of the commitments, which fees shall be measured and payable on a quarterly basis.
As of both March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, our aggregate borrowing capacity under the 2019 Trilogy Credit Facility was $360,000,000. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, borrowings outstanding under the 2019 Trilogy Credit Facility totaled $271,879,000 and $258,879,000, respectively, and the weighted average interest rate on such borrowings outstanding was 3.75% and 4.52% per annum, respectively.
Both the 2019 Corporate Credit Agreement and the 2019 Trilogy Credit Agreement contain various financial covenants. We were in compliance with such covenants as of March 31, 2020. The extent and severity of the coronavirus, or COVID-19, pandemic on our business continues to evolve, and any continued future deterioration of operations in excess of management's projections as a result of COVID-19 could impact future compliance with these financial covenants. If any future financial covenants are violated, we anticipate seeking a waiver or amending the debt covenants with the lenders when and if such event should occur. However, there can be no assurances that management will be able to effectively achieve such plans.

See Note 15, Fair Value Measurements, for a further discussion of the fair value of our derivative financial instruments.
10. Identified Intangible Liabilities, Net
As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, identified intangible liabilities, net consisted of below-market leases of $570,000 and $663,000, respectively, net of accumulated amortization of $1,353,000 and $1,342,000, respectively.

11. Commitments and Contingencies
Litigation
We are not presently subject to any material litigation nor, to our knowledge, is any material litigation threatened against us, which if determined unfavorably to us, would have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Environmental Matters
We follow a policy of monitoring our properties for the presence of hazardous or toxic substances. While there can be no assurance that a material environmental liability does not exist at our properties, we are not currently aware of any environmental liability with respect to our properties that would have a material effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Further, we are not aware of any material environmental liability or any unasserted claim or

19


GRIFFIN-AMERICAN HEALTHCARE REIT III, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) — (Continued)

assessment with respect to an environmental liability that we believe would require additional disclosure or the recording of a loss contingency.
Other
Our other commitments and contingencies include the usual obligations of real estate owners and operators in the normal course of business, which include calls/puts to sell/acquire properties. In our view, these matters are not expected to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic
The COVID-19 pandemic is dramatically impacting the United States and has resulted in an aggressive worldwide effort to contain the spread of the virus. These efforts have significantly and adversely disrupted economic markets and impacted commercial activity worldwide, including markets in which we own and/or operate properties, and the prolonged economic impact is uncertain. Considerable uncertainty still surrounds the COVID-19 pandemic and its effects on the population, as well as the effectiveness of any responses taken on an international, national and local level by government authorities and businesses. In addition, the rapidly evolving nature of the COVID-19 pandemic makes it difficult to ascertain the long-term impact it will have on real estate markets and our portfolio of investments. We are continuously monitoring the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, residents, tenants, operating partners, managers, portfolio of investments and on the United States and global economies. While the results of our current analyses did not result in any material adjustments to our condensed consolidated financial statements as of and during the three months ended March 31, 2020, the prolonged duration and impact of the COVID-19 pandemic could materially disrupt our business operations and impact our financial performance.
12. Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests
As of both March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, our advisor owned all of the 222 limited partnership units outstanding in our operating partnership. As of both March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we owned greater than a 99.99% general partnership interest in our operating partnership, and our advisor owned less than a 0.01% limited partnership interest in our operating partnership. Our advisor is entitled to special redemption rights of its limited partnership units. The noncontrolling interest of our advisor in our operating partnership that has redemption features outside of our control is accounted for as a redeemable noncontrolling interest and is presented outside of permanent equity in our accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. See Note 14, Related Party Transactions — Liquidity Stage — Subordinated Participation Interest — Subordinated Distribution Upon Listing and Note 14, Related Party Transactions — Subordinated Distribution Upon Termination, for a further discussion of the redemption features of the limited partnership units.
As of both March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we, through Trilogy REIT Holdings, LLC, or Trilogy REIT Holdings, in which we indirectly hold a 70.0% ownership interest, owned 96.6% of the outstanding equity interests of Trilogy. As of both March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, certain members of Trilogy’s management and certain members of an advisory committee to Trilogy’s board of directors owned approximately 3.4% of the outstanding equity interests of Trilogy. The noncontrolling interests held by such members have redemption features outside of our control and are accounted for as redeemable noncontrolling interests in our accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.
We record the carrying amount of redeemable noncontrolling interests at the greater of: (i) the initial carrying amount, increased or decreased for the noncontrolling interests’ share of net income or loss and distributions or (ii) the redemption value. The changes in the carrying amount of redeemable noncontrolling interests consisted of the following for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019:

Noncontrolling Interests
As of both March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, Trilogy REIT Holdings owned approximately 96.6% of Trilogy. We are the indirect owner of a 70.0% interest in Trilogy REIT Holdings pursuant to an amended joint venture agreement with an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of NorthStar Healthcare Income, Inc., or NHI, and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the operating partnership of Griffin-American Healthcare REIT IV, Inc., or GAHR IV. Both GAHR IV and us are sponsored by American Healthcare Investors. We serve as the sole manager of Trilogy REIT Holdings. As of both March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, NHI and GAHR IV indirectly owned a 24.0% and 6.0% membership interest in Trilogy REIT Holdings, respectively. For both the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, 30.0% of the net earnings of Trilogy REIT Holdings were allocated to noncontrolling interests.
In connection with our acquisition and operation of Trilogy, profit interest units in Trilogy, or the Profit Interests, were issued to Trilogy Management Services, LLC and an independent director of Trilogy, both unaffiliated third parties that manage or direct the day-to-day operations of Trilogy. The Profit Interests consist of time-based or performance-based commitments. The time-based Profit Interests were measured at their grant date fair value and vest in increments of 20.0% on each anniversary of the respective grant date over a five-year period. We amortize the time-based Profit Interests on a straight-line basis over the vesting periods, which are recorded to general and administrative in our accompanying condensed consolidated

statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). The performance-based Profit Interests are subject to a performance commitment and vest upon liquidity events as defined in the Profit Interests agreements. The performance-based Profit Interests were measured at their grant date fair value and immediately expensed. The performance-based Profit Interests are subject to fair value measurements until vesting occurs with changes to fair value recorded to general and administrative in our accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). For both the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, we recognized stock compensation expense related to the Profit Interests of $195,000.
There were no canceled, expired or exercised Profit Interests during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019. The nonvested awards are presented as noncontrolling interests and are re-classified to redeemable noncontrolling interests upon vesting as they have redemption features outside of our control similar to the common stock units held by Trilogy’s pre-closing management. See Note 12, Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests, for a further discussion.
On January 6, 2016, one of our consolidated subsidiaries issued non-voting preferred shares of beneficial interests to qualified investors for total proceeds of $125,000. These preferred shares of beneficial interests are entitled to receive cumulative preferential cash dividends at the rate of 12.5% per annum. We classify the value of the subsidiary’s preferred shares of beneficial interests as noncontrolling interests in our accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets and the dividends of the preferred shares of beneficial interests as net income attributable to noncontrolling interests in our accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).
In addition, as of both March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we owned an 86.0% interest in a consolidated limited liability company that owns Lakeview IN Medical Plaza, which we acquired on January 21, 2016. As such, 14.0% of the net earnings of Lakeview IN Medical Plaza were allocated to noncontrolling interests for both the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.
Distribution Reinvestment Plan
We had registered and reserved $35,000,000 in shares of our common stock for sale pursuant to the Initial DRIP in our initial offering, which we deregistered on April 22, 2015. We continued to offer shares of our common stock pursuant to the 2015 DRIP Offering, which commenced offering shares following the deregistration of our initial offering, until the deregistration of the 2015 DRIP Offering on March 29, 2019. We continue to offer up to $200,000,000 of additional shares of our common stock pursuant to the 2019 DRIP Offering, which commenced offering shares on April 1, 2019, following the deregistration of the 2015 DRIP Offering.
Effective October 5, 2016, we amended and restated the Initial DRIP to amend the price at which shares of our common stock are issued pursuant to such distribution reinvestment plan. Pursuant to the Amended and Restated DRIP, shares are issued at a price equal to the most recently estimated net asset value, or NAV, of one share of our common stock, as approved and established by our board. The Amended and Restated DRIP became effective with the distribution payments to stockholders paid in the month of November 2016. In all other material respects, the terms of the 2015 DRIP Offering remained unchanged by the Amended and Restated DRIP.
Since October 5, 2016, our board has approved and established an estimated per share NAV on at least an annual basis. Commencing with the distribution payment to stockholders paid in the month following such board approval, shares of our common stock issued pursuant to the Amended and Restated DRIP were or will be issued at the current estimated per share NAV until such time as our board determines an updated estimated per share NAV. The following is a summary of our historical and current estimated per share NAV:

For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, $13,141,000 and $14,196,000, respectively, in distributions were reinvested and 1,398,021 and 1,515,098 shares of our common stock, respectively, were issued pursuant to our DRIP Offerings. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, a total of $318,292,000 and $305,151,000, respectively, in distributions were reinvested that resulted in 34,131,715 and 32,733,694 shares of our common stock, respectively, being issued pursuant to our DRIP Offerings.
Share Repurchase Plan
Our share repurchase plan, as amended, allows for repurchases of shares of our common stock by us when certain criteria are met. Share repurchases will be made at the sole discretion of our board. Subject to the availability of the funds for share repurchases, we will generally limit the number of shares of our common stock repurchased during any calendar year to 5.0% of the weighted average number of shares of our common stock outstanding during the prior calendar year. Additionally, effective with respect to share repurchase requests submitted for repurchase during the second quarter 2019, the number of shares that we will repurchase during any fiscal quarter will be limited to an amount equal to the net proceeds that we received from the sale of shares issued pursuant to our DRIP Offerings during the immediately preceding completed fiscal quarter; provided however, that shares subject to a repurchase requested upon the death or “qualifying disability,” as defined in our share repurchase plan, of a stockholder will not be subject to this quarterly cap or to our existing cap on repurchases of 5.0% of the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the calendar year prior to the repurchase date. Funds for the repurchase of shares of our common stock will come from the cumulative proceeds we receive from the sale of shares of our common stock pursuant to our DRIP Offerings. Furthermore, our share repurchase plan provides that if there are insufficient funds to honor all repurchase requests, pending requests may be honored among all requests for repurchase in any given repurchase period as follows: first, repurchases in full as to repurchases that would result in a stockholder owning less than $2,500 of shares; and, next, pro rata as to other repurchase requests.
The Repurchase Amount, as such term is defined in our share repurchase plan, is equal to the lesser of (i) the amount per share that a stockholder paid for their shares of our common stock, or (ii) the most recent estimated value of one share of our common stock, as determined by our board. For requests submitted pursuant to a death or a qualifying disability of a stockholder, the Repurchase Amount will be 100% of the amount per share the stockholder paid for their shares of common stock. Since October 5, 2016, our board has approved and established an estimated per share NAV on at least an annual basis. See the “Distribution Reinvestment Plan” section above for a summary of our historical and current estimated per share NAV. Accordingly, commencing with share repurchase requests submitted during the quarter that our board has approved and established an estimated per share NAV, such per share NAV served or will serve as the Repurchase Amount for stockholders who purchased their shares at a price equal to or greater than such per share NAV in our initial offering, until such time as our board determines an updated estimated per share NAV.
Due to the impact the COVID-19 pandemic has had on the United States and globally, and the uncertainty of the severity and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and its effects, our board decided to take steps to protect our capital and maximize our liquidity in an effort to strengthen our long-term financial prospects by partially suspending our share repurchase plan. As a result, effective with respect to share repurchase requests submitted for repurchase during the second quarter 2020, on March 31, 2020, our board suspended our share repurchase plan with respect to all repurchase requests other than repurchases resulting from the death or qualifying disability of stockholders. Repurchase requests resulting from the death or qualifying disability of stockholders are not suspended, but shall remain subject to all terms and conditions of our share repurchase plan, including our board’s discretion to determine whether we have sufficient funds available to repurchase any shares. Our board shall determine if and when it is in the best interest of our company and stockholders to reinstate our share repurchase plan for additional stockholders.
For the three months ended March 31, 2020, we did not repurchase any shares. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, we repurchased 3,883,716 shares of our common stock, for an aggregate of $36,486,000, at an average repurchase price of $9.39 per share. As of both March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we repurchased 23,846,540 shares of our common stock, for an aggregate of $221,823,000, at an average repurchase price of $9.30. In April 2020, we repurchased 1,893,413 shares of our common stock, under our share repurchase plan, for an aggregate of $17,986,000, at an average purchase price of $9.50 per share. Shares were repurchased using proceeds we received from the cumulative sale of shares of our common stock pursuant to our DRIP Offerings.

2013 Incentive Plan
We adopted the 2013 Incentive Plan, or our incentive plan, pursuant to which our board, or a committee of our independent directors, may make grants of options, shares of our common stock, stock purchase rights, stock appreciation rights or other awards to our independent directors, employees and consultants. The maximum number of shares of our common stock that may be issued pursuant to our incentive plan is 2,000,000 shares. For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, we did not issue any shares of our common stock pursuant to our incentive plan and none of the previously issued shares of our restricted common stock were vested. For both the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, we recognized stock compensation expense related to the independent director grants of $43,000. Such stock compensation expense is included in general and administrative in our accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).
14. Related Party Transactions
Fees and Expenses Paid to Affiliates
All of our executive officers and our non-independent directors are also executive officers and employees and/or holders of a direct or indirect interest in our advisor, one of our co-sponsors or other affiliated entities.

Set forth below is a description of the transactions with affiliates. We believe that we have executed all of the transactions set forth below on terms that are fair and reasonable to us and on terms no less favorable to us than those available from unaffiliated third parties.

Our advisor or its affiliates are entitled to receive these acquisition fees for properties and real estate-related investments we acquire with funds raised in our initial offering including acquisitions completed after the termination of the Advisory Agreement, or funded with net proceeds from the sale of a property or real estate-related investment, subject to certain conditions.

For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, we incurred $48,000 and $150,000, respectively, in development fees to our advisor or its affiliates, which are capitalized as part of the associated investments in our accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Operational Stage
Asset Management Fee
We pay our advisor or its affiliates a monthly fee for services rendered in connection with the management of our assets equal to one-twelfth of 0.75% of average invested assets, subject to our stockholders receiving distributions in an amount equal to 5.0% per annum, cumulative, non-compounded, of invested capital. For such purposes, average invested assets means the average of the aggregate book value of our assets invested in real estate and real estate-related investments, before deducting depreciation, amortization, bad debt and other similar non-cash reserves, computed by taking the average of such values at the end of each month during the period of calculation; and invested capital means, for a specified period, the aggregate issue price of shares of our common stock purchased by our stockholders, reduced by distributions of net sales proceeds by us to our stockholders and by any amounts paid by us to repurchase shares of our common stock pursuant to our share repurchase plan.
For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, we incurred $5,105,000 and $4,977,000, respectively, in asset management fees to our advisor or its affiliates. Asset management fees are included in general and administrative in our accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).
Property Management Fee
Our advisor or its affiliates may directly serve as property manager of our properties or may sub-contract their property management duties to any third party and provide oversight of such third-party property manager. We pay our advisor or its affiliates a monthly management fee equal to a percentage of the gross monthly cash receipts of such property as follows: (i) a property management oversight fee of 1.0% of the gross monthly cash receipts of any stand-alone, single-tenant, net leased property; (ii) a property management oversight fee of 1.5% of the gross monthly cash receipts of any property that is not a stand-alone, single-tenant, net leased property and for which our advisor or its affiliates provide oversight of a third party that performs the duties of a property manager with respect to such property; or (iii) a fair and reasonable property management fee that is approved by a majority of our directors, including a majority of our independent directors, that is not less favorable to us than terms available from unaffiliated third parties for any property that is not a stand-alone, single-tenant, net leased property and for which our advisor or its affiliates will directly serve as the property manager without sub-contracting such duties to a third party.
For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, we incurred $653,000 and $619,000, respectively, in property management fees to our advisor or its affiliates. Property management fees are included in property operating expenses and rental expenses in our accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

Such fee is generally expected to range from 3.0% to 6.0% of the gross revenues generated during the initial term of the lease.
For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, we incurred $203,000 and $24,000, respectively, in lease fees to our advisor or its affiliates. Lease fees are capitalized as lease commissions and included in other assets, net in our accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Operating Expenses
We reimburse our advisor or its affiliates for operating expenses incurred in rendering services to us, subject to certain limitations. However, we cannot reimburse our advisor or its affiliates at the end of any fiscal quarter for total operating expenses that, in the four consecutive fiscal quarters then ended, exceed the greater of: (i) 2.0% of our average invested assets, as defined in the Advisory Agreement; or (ii) 25.0% of our net income, as defined in the Advisory Agreement, unless our independent directors determined that such excess expenses were justified based on unusual and nonrecurring factors which they deem sufficient.
For the 12 months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, our operating expenses did not exceed the aforementioned limitations. The following table reflects our operating expenses as a percentage of average invested assets and as a percentage of net income for the 12 month periods then ended:

Operating expenses are generally included in general and administrative in our accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).
Compensation for Additional Services
We pay our advisor and its affiliates for services performed for us other than those required to be rendered by our advisor or its affiliates under the Advisory Agreement. The rate of compensation for these services has to be approved by a majority of our board, including a majority of our independent directors, and cannot exceed an amount that would be paid to unaffiliated third parties for similar services. For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, our advisor and its affiliates were not compensated for any additional services.
Liquidity Stage
Disposition Fees
For services relating to the sale of one or more properties, we pay our advisor or its affiliates a disposition fee of up to the lesser of 2.0% of the contract sales price or 50.0% of a customary competitive real estate commission given the circumstances surrounding the sale, in each case as determined by our board, including a majority of our independent directors, upon the provision of a substantial amount of the services in the sales effort. The amount of disposition fees paid, when added to the real estate commissions paid to unaffiliated third parties, will not exceed the lesser of the customary competitive real estate commission or an amount equal to 6.0% of the contract sales price.
For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, we did not incur any disposition fees to our advisor or its affiliates.
Subordinated Participation Interest
Subordinated Distribution of Net Sales Proceeds
In the event of liquidation, we will pay our advisor a subordinated distribution of net sales proceeds. The distribution will be equal to 15.0% of the remaining net proceeds from the sales of properties, after distributions to our stockholders, in the aggregate, of: (i) a full return of capital raised from stockholders (less amounts paid to repurchase shares of our common stock pursuant to our share repurchase plan); plus (ii) an annual 7.0% cumulative, non-compounded return on the gross proceeds from the sale of shares of our common stock, as adjusted for distributions of net sales proceeds. Actual amounts to be received depend on the sale prices of properties upon liquidation. For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, we did not pay any such distributions to our advisor.

Subordinated Distribution Upon Listing
Upon the listing of shares of our common stock on a national securities exchange, in redemption of our advisor’s limited partnership units, we will pay our advisor a distribution equal to 15.0% of the amount by which: (i) the market value of our outstanding common stock at listing plus distributions paid prior to listing exceeds (ii) the sum of the total amount of capital raised from stockholders (less amounts paid to repurchase shares of our common stock pursuant to our share repurchase plan) and the amount of cash that, if distributed to stockholders as of the date of listing, would have provided them an annual 7.0% cumulative, non-compounded return on the gross proceeds from the sale of shares of our common stock through the date of listing. Actual amounts to be paid depend upon the market value of our outstanding stock at the time of listing, among other factors. For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, we did not pay any such distributions to our advisor.
Subordinated Distribution Upon Termination
Pursuant to the Agreement of Limited Partnership, as amended, of our operating partnership, upon termination or non-renewal of the Advisory Agreement, our advisor will also be entitled to a subordinated distribution in redemption of its limited partnership units from our operating partnership equal to 15.0% of the amount, if any, by which: (i) the appraised value of our assets on the termination date, less any indebtedness secured by such assets, plus total distributions paid through the termination date, exceeds (ii) the sum of the total amount of capital raised from stockholders (less amounts paid to repurchase shares of our common stock pursuant to our share repurchase plan) and the total amount of cash equal to an annual 7.0% cumulative, non-compounded return on the gross proceeds from the sale of shares of our common stock through the termination date. In addition, our advisor may elect to defer its right to receive a subordinated distribution upon termination until either a listing or other liquidity event, including a liquidation, sale of substantially all of our assets or merger in which our stockholders receive in exchange for their shares of our common stock, shares of a company that are traded on a national securities exchange.
As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we did not have any liability related to the subordinated distribution upon termination.

There were no transfers into and out of fair value measurement levels during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.
Derivative Financial Instruments
We use interest rate swaps and interest rate caps to manage interest rate risk associated with variable-rate debt. The valuation of these instruments is determined using widely accepted valuation techniques including a discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves, as well as option volatility. The fair values of interest rate swaps are determined by netting the discounted future fixed cash payments and the discounted expected variable cash receipts. The variable cash receipts are based on an expectation of future interest rates derived from observable market interest rate curves.
We incorporate credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both our own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements. In adjusting the fair value of our derivative contracts for the effect of nonperformance risk, we have considered the impact of netting and any applicable credit enhancements, such as collateral postings, thresholds, mutual puts and guarantees.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) — (Continued)

Although we have determined that the majority of the inputs used to value our derivative financial instruments fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with these instruments utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads, to evaluate the likelihood of default by us and our counterparty. However, as of March 31, 2020, we have assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of our derivative positions and have determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of our derivatives. As a result, we have determined that our derivative valuations in their entirety are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
Warrants
As of both March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we have recorded $1,178,000 related to warrants in Trilogy common units held by certain members of Trilogy’s pre-closing management, which is included in security deposits, prepaid rent and other liabilities in our accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Once exercised, these warrants have redemption features similar to the common units held by members of Trilogy’s pre-closing management. See Note 12, Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests, for a further discussion. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the carrying value is a reasonable estimate of fair value.
Financial Instruments Disclosed at Fair Value
Our accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets include the following financial instruments: debt security investment, cash and cash equivalents, accounts and other receivables, restricted cash, real estate deposits, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, accounts payable due to affiliates, mortgage loans payable and borrowings under our lines of credit and term loans.
We consider the carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts and other receivables, restricted cash, real estate deposits and accounts payable and accrued liabilities to approximate the fair value for these financial instruments based upon an evaluation of the underlying characteristics, market data and because of the short period of time between origination of the instruments and their expected realization. The fair value of cash and cash equivalents is classified in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of accounts payable due to affiliates is not determinable due to the related party nature of the accounts payable. The fair values of the other financial instruments are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
The fair value of our debt security investment is estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis using interest rates available to us for investments with similar terms and maturities. The fair value of our mortgage loans payable and our lines of credit and term loans are estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis using borrowing rates available to us for debt instruments with similar terms and maturities. We have determined that the valuations of our debt security investment, mortgage loans payable and lines of credit and term loans are classified in Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy. The carrying amounts and estimated fair values of such financial instruments as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 were as follows:

16. Income Taxes
As a REIT, we generally will not be subject to federal income tax on taxable income that we distribute to our stockholders. We have elected to treat certain of our consolidated subsidiaries as taxable REIT subsidiaries, or TRS, pursuant to the Code. TRS may participate in services that would otherwise be considered impermissible for REITs and are subject to federal and state income tax at regular corporate tax rates.

Current Income Tax
Federal and state income taxes are generally a function of the level of income recognized by our TRS. Foreign income taxes are generally a function of our income on our real estate and real estate-related investments located in the United Kingdom, or UK, and Isle of Man.
Deferred Taxes
Deferred income tax is generally a function of the period’s temporary differences (primarily basis differences between tax and financial reporting for real estate assets and equity investments) and generation of tax net operating losses that may be realized in future periods depending on sufficient taxable income.
We recognize the financial statement effects of an uncertain tax position when it is more likely than not, based on the technical merits of the tax position, that such a position will be sustained upon examination by the relevant tax authorities. If the tax benefit meets the “more likely than not” threshold, the measurement of the tax benefit will be based on our estimate of the ultimate tax benefit to be sustained if audited by the taxing authority. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we did not have any tax benefits or liabilities for uncertain tax positions that we believe should be recognized in our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.
We assess the available evidence to estimate if sufficient future taxable income will be generated to use the existing deferred tax assets. A valuation allowance is established if we believe it is more likely than not that all or a portion of the deferred tax assets are not realizable. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, our valuation allowance substantially reserves the net deferred tax assets due to inherent uncertainty of future income. We will continue to monitor industry and economic conditions, and our ability to generate taxable income based on our business plan and available tax planning strategies, which would allow us to utilize the tax benefits of the net deferred tax assets and thereby allow us to reverse all, or a portion of, our valuation allowance in the future.

17. Leases
Lessor
We have operating leases with tenants that expire at various dates through 2050. For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, we recognized $28,823,000 and $31,053,000, respectively, of revenues related to operating lease payments, of which $4,450,000 and $4,741,000, respectively, was for variable lease payments. As of March 31, 2020, the following table sets forth the undiscounted cash flows for future minimum base rents due under operating leases for the nine months ended December 31, 2020 and for each of the next four years ending December 31 and thereafter for properties that we wholly own:

Lessee
We lease certain land, buildings, furniture, fixtures, campus equipment, office equipment and automobiles. We have lease agreements with lease and non-lease components, which are generally accounted for separately. Most leases include one or more options to renew, with renewal terms that generally can extend at various dates through 2112, excluding extension options. The exercise of lease renewal options is at our sole discretion. Certain leases also include options to purchase the leased property. As of March 31, 2020, we had future lease payments of $28,703,000 for operating leases that had not yet commenced. These operating leases will commence between fiscal year 2020 and fiscal year 2021 with lease terms of up to 10 years.
The depreciable life of assets and leasehold improvements are limited by the expected lease term, unless there is a transfer of title or purchase option reasonably certain of exercise. Certain of our lease agreements include rental payments that are adjusted periodically based on the Consumer Price Index, and may also include other variable lease costs (i.e., common area maintenance, property taxes and insurance). Our lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

18. Segment Reporting
As of March 31, 2020, we evaluated our business and made resource allocations based on six reportable business segments: medical office buildings, hospitals, skilled nursing facilities, senior housing, senior housing — RIDEA and integrated senior health campuses. Our medical office buildings are typically leased to multiple tenants under separate leases, thus requiring active management and responsibility for many of the associated operating expenses (much of which are, or can effectively be, passed through to the tenants). Our hospital investments are primarily single-tenant properties for which we lease the facilities to unaffiliated tenants under triple-net and generally master leases that transfer the obligation for all facility operating costs (including maintenance, repairs, taxes, insurance and capital expenditures) to the tenant. Our skilled nursing facilities and senior housing facilities are similarly structured to our hospital investments. In addition, our senior housing segment includes our debt security investment. Our senior housing — RIDEA properties include senior housing facilities that are owned and operated utilizing a RIDEA structure. Our integrated senior health campuses include a range of assisted living, memory care, independent living, skilled nursing services and certain ancillary businesses that are owned and operated utilizing a RIDEA structure.
We evaluate performance based upon segment net operating income. We define segment net operating income as total revenues, less property operating expenses and rental expenses, which excludes depreciation and amortization, general and administrative expenses, acquisition related expenses, interest expense, gain or loss in fair value of derivative financial instruments, impairment of real estate investments, foreign currency gain or loss, other income, loss from unconsolidated entities and income tax benefit or expense for each segment. We believe that net income (loss), as defined by GAAP, is the most appropriate earnings measurement. However, we believe that segment net operating income serves as an appropriate supplemental performance measure to net income (loss) because it allows investors and our management to measure unlevered property-level operating results and to compare our operating results to the operating results of other real estate companies and between periods on a consistent basis.
Interest expense, depreciation and amortization and other expenses not attributable to individual properties are not allocated to individual segments for purposes of assessing segment performance. Non-segment assets primarily consist of corporate assets including cash and cash equivalents, other receivables, deferred financing costs and other assets not attributable to individual properties.

19. Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject us to a concentration of credit risk are primarily our debt security investment, cash and cash equivalents, accounts and other receivables, restricted cash and real estate deposits. We are exposed to credit risk with respect to our debt security investment, but we believe collection of the outstanding amount is probable. Cash and cash equivalents are generally invested in investment-grade, short-term instruments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased. We have cash and cash equivalents in financial institutions that are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or FDIC. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had cash and cash equivalents in excess of FDIC insured limits. We believe this risk is not significant. Concentration of credit risk with respect to accounts receivable from tenants is limited. We perform credit evaluations of prospective tenants and security deposits are obtained at the time of property acquisition and upon lease execution.
Based on leases in effect as of March 31, 2020, properties in two states in the United States accounted for 10.0% or more of our total property portfolio’s annualized base rent or annualized net operating income. Properties located in Indiana and Ohio accounted for 38.3% and 10.4%, respectively, of our total property portfolio’s annualized base rent or annualized net operating income. Accordingly, there is a geographic concentration of risk subject to fluctuations in each state’s economy.
Based on leases in effect as of March 31, 2020, our six reportable business segments, integrated senior health campuses, medical office buildings, senior housing — RIDEA, skilled nursing facilities, hospitals and senior housing, accounted for 50.9%, 26.5%, 10.6%, 5.5%, 3.8% and 2.7%, respectively, of our total property portfolio’s annualized base rent or annualized net operating income. As of March 31, 2020, none of our tenants at our properties accounted for 10.0% or more of our total property portfolio’s annualized base rent or annualized net operating income, which is based on contractual base rent from leases in effect inclusive of our senior housing — RIDEA facilities and integrated senior health campuses operations as of March 31, 2020.
20. Per Share Data
Basic earnings (loss) per share for all periods presented are computed by dividing net income (loss) applicable to common stock by the weighted average number of shares of our common stock outstanding during the period. Net income (loss) applicable to common stock is calculated as net income (loss) attributable to controlling interest less distributions allocated to participating securities of $7,000 for both the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019. Diluted earnings (loss) per share are computed based on the weighted average number of shares of our common stock and all potentially dilutive securities, if any. Nonvested shares of our restricted common stock and redeemable limited partnership units of our operating partnership are participating securities and give rise to potentially dilutive shares of our common stock.

GRIFFIN-AMERICAN HEALTHCARE REIT III, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) — (Continued)

As of both March 31, 2020 and 2019, there were 46,500 nonvested shares of our restricted common stock outstanding, but such shares were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because such shares were anti-dilutive during these periods. As of both March 31, 2020 and 2019, there were 222 redeemable limited partnership units of our operating partnership outstanding, but such units were also excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because such units were anti-dilutive during these periods.

Such condensed consolidated financial statements and information have been prepared to reflect our financial position as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, together with our results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.
Forward-Looking Statements
Historical results and trends should not be taken as indicative of future operations. Our statements contained in this report that are not historical factual statements are “forward-looking statements.” Actual results may differ materially from those included in the forward-looking statements.

Our ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans and strategies is inherently uncertain. Factors which could have a material adverse effect on our operations on a consolidated basis include, but are not limited to: changes in economic conditions generally and the real estate market specifically; the effects of the coronavirus, or COVID-19, pandemic, including its effects on the healthcare industry, senior housing and skilled nursing facilities and the economy in general; legislative and regulatory changes, including changes to laws governing the taxation of real estate investment trusts, or REITs; the availability of capital; changes in interest and foreign currency exchange rates; competition in the real estate industry; changes in accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or GAAP, policies or guidelines applicable to REITs; the success of our investment strategy; the availability of financing; and our ongoing relationship with American Healthcare Investors, LLC, or American Healthcare Investors, and Griffin Capital Company, LLC, or Griffin Capital, or collectively, our co-sponsors, and their affiliates. These risks and uncertainties should be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements. Forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q speak only as of the date on which such statements were made, and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements. We undertake no obligation to update any such statements that may become untrue because of subsequent events. Additional information concerning us and our business, including additional factors that could materially affect our financial results, is included herein and in our other filings with the SEC.
Overview and Background
Griffin-American Healthcare REIT III, Inc., a Maryland corporation, was incorporated on January 11, 2013, and therefore, we consider that our date of inception. We were initially capitalized on January 15, 2013. We invest in a diversified portfolio of real estate properties, focusing primarily on medical office buildings, hospitals, skilled nursing facilities, senior housing and other healthcare-related facilities. We also operate healthcare-related facilities utilizing the structure permitted by the REIT Investment Diversification and Empowerment Act of 2007, which is commonly referred to as a “RIDEA” structure (the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code, authorizing the RIDEA structure were enacted as part of the Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008). We also originate and acquire secured loans and may also originate and acquire other real estate-related investments on an infrequent and opportunistic basis. We generally seek investments that produce current income. We qualified to be taxed as a REIT under the Code for federal income tax purposes beginning with our taxable year ended December 31, 2014, and we intend to continue to qualify to be taxed as a REIT.
On February 26, 2014, we commenced a best efforts initial public offering, or our initial offering, in which we offered to the public up to $1,900,000,000 in shares of our common stock. As of April 22, 2015, the deregistration date of our initial offering, we had received and accepted subscriptions in our initial offering for 184,930,598 shares of our common stock, or $1,842,618,000, excluding shares of our common stock issued pursuant to our initial distribution reinvestment plan, or the Initial DRIP. As of April 22, 2015, a total of $18,511,000 in distributions were reinvested that resulted in 1,948,563 shares of our common stock being issued pursuant to the Initial DRIP.
On March 25, 2015, we filed a Registration Statement on Form S-3 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, to register a maximum of $250,000,000 of additional shares of our common stock to be issued pursuant to the Initial DRIP, or the 2015 DRIP Offering. We commenced offering shares pursuant to the 2015 DRIP Offering following the deregistration of our initial offering. Effective October 5, 2016, we amended and restated the Initial DRIP, or the Amended and Restated DRIP, to amend the price at which shares of our common stock are issued pursuant to the 2015 DRIP Offering. We

38


continued to offer shares of our common stock pursuant to the 2015 DRIP Offering until the termination and deregistration of such offering on March 29, 2019. As of March 29, 2019, a total of $245,396,000 in distributions were reinvested that resulted in 26,386,545 shares of our common stock being issued pursuant to the 2015 DRIP Offering.
On January 30, 2019, we filed a Registration Statement on Form S-3 under the Securities Act to register a maximum of $200,000,000 of additional shares of our common stock to be issued pursuant to the Amended and Restated DRIP, or the 2019 DRIP Offering. We commenced offering shares pursuant to the 2019 DRIP Offering on April 1, 2019, following the deregistration of the 2015 DRIP Offering. As of March 31, 2020, a total of $54,385,000 in distributions were reinvested that resulted in 5,796,607 shares of common stock being issued pursuant to the 2019 DRIP Offering. We collectively refer to the Initial DRIP portion of our initial offering, the 2015 DRIP Offering and the 2019 DRIP Offering as our DRIP Offerings.
The COVID-19 pandemic is dramatically impacting the United States and has resulted in an aggressive worldwide effort to contain the spread of the virus. These efforts have significantly and adversely disrupted economic markets and impacted commercial activity worldwide, including markets in which we own and/or operate properties, and the prolonged economic impact is uncertain. Considerable uncertainty still surrounds the COVID-19 pandemic and its effects on the population, as well as the effectiveness of any responses taken on a national and local level by government authorities and businesses. In addition, the rapidly evolving nature of the COVID-19 pandemic makes it difficult to ascertain the long-term impact it will have on real estate markets and our portfolio of investments at this time. We are continuously monitoring the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, residents, tenants, operating partners, managers, portfolio of investments and on the United States and global economies. While the results of our current analyses did not result in any material adjustments to our condensed consolidated financial statements as of and during the three months ended March 31, 2020, the prolonged duration and impact of the COVID-19 pandemic could materially disrupt our business operations and impact our financial performance. See the “Factors That May Influence Our Results of Operations” and “Liquidity and Capital Resources” sections below for a further discussion.
On October 3, 2019, our board of directors, or our board, at the recommendation of the audit committee of our board, comprised solely of independent directors, unanimously approved and established an updated estimated per share net asset value, or NAV, of our common stock of $9.40. We provide an updated estimated per share NAV on at least an annual basis to assist broker-dealers in connection with their obligations under Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, or FINRA, Rule 2231 with respect to customer account statements. The updated estimated per share NAV is based on the estimated value of our assets less the estimated value of our liabilities, divided by the number of shares outstanding on a fully diluted basis, calculated as of June 30, 2019. The valuation was performed in accordance with the methodology provided in Practice Guideline 2013-01, Valuations of Publicly Registered Non-Listed REITs, or the Practice Guideline, issued by the Institute for Portfolio Alternatives, or the IPA, in April 2013, in addition to guidance from the SEC. Although we intend to publish an updated estimated per share NAV on at least an annual basis, we may be required to reevaluate the estimated per share NAV sooner if the COVID-19 pandemic has a material adverse impact on our residents, tenants, operating partners, managers or portfolio of investments or us. See our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on October 4, 2019 for more information on the methodologies and assumptions used to determine, and the limitations and risks of, our updated estimated per share NAV.
We conduct substantially all of our operations through Griffin-American Healthcare REIT III Holdings, LP, or our operating partnership. We are externally advised by Griffin-American Healthcare REIT III Advisor, LLC, or Griffin-American Advisor, or our advisor, pursuant to an advisory agreement, or the Advisory Agreement, between us and our advisor. The Advisory Agreement was effective as of February 26, 2014 and had a one-year initial term, subject to successive one-year renewals upon the mutual consent of the parties. The Advisory Agreement was last renewed pursuant to the mutual consent of the parties on February 11, 2020 and expires on February 26, 2021. Our advisor uses its best efforts, subject to the oversight, review and approval of our board, to, among other things, research, identify, review and make investments in and dispositions of properties and securities on our behalf consistent with our investment policies and objectives. Our advisor performs its duties and responsibilities under the Advisory Agreement as our fiduciary. Our advisor is 75.0% owned and managed by wholly owned subsidiaries of American Healthcare Investors, and 25.0% owned by a wholly owned subsidiary of Griffin Capital. American Healthcare Investors is 47.1% owned by AHI Group Holdings, LLC, or AHI Group Holdings, 45.1% indirectly owned by Colony Capital, Inc. (NYSE: CLNY), or Colony Capital, and 7.8% owned by James F. Flaherty III, a former partner of Colony Capital. We are not affiliated with Griffin Capital, Griffin Capital Securities, LLC, the dealer manager for our initial offering, Colony Capital, or Mr. Flaherty; however, we are affiliated with Griffin-American Advisor, American Healthcare Investors and AHI Group Holdings.
We currently operate through six reportable business segments: medical office buildings, hospitals, skilled nursing facilities, senior housing, senior housing — RIDEA and integrated senior health campuses. As of March 31, 2020, we owned and/or operated 98 properties, comprising 102 buildings, and 118 integrated senior health campuses including completed development projects, or approximately 13,841,000 square feet of gross leasable area, or GLA, for an aggregate contract

purchase price of $3,002,533,000. In addition, as of March 31, 2020, we also owned a real estate-related investment purchased for $60,429,000.
Critical Accounting Policies
The complete listing of our Critical Accounting Policies was previously disclosed in our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the SEC on March 26, 2020, and there have been no material changes to our Critical Accounting Policies as disclosed therein, except as noted below or included within Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.
Interim Unaudited Financial Data
Our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by us in accordance with GAAP in conjunction with the rules and regulations of the SEC. Certain information and footnote disclosures required for annual financial statements have been condensed or excluded pursuant to SEC rules and regulations. Accordingly, our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are, in our view, of a normal recurring nature and necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim period. Interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year; such full year results may be less favorable. Our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the SEC on March 26, 2020.

Factors Which May Influence Results of Operations
We are not aware of any material trends or uncertainties, other than national economic conditions affecting real estate generally, including the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, that may reasonably be expected to have a material impact, favorable or unfavorable, on revenues or income from the acquisition, management and operation of our properties other than those listed in Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors, of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and those Risk Factors previously disclosed in our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the SEC on March 26, 2020.
Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic in the United States and globally, our residents, tenants, operating partners and managers may be materially impacted. The situation presents a meaningful challenge for us as an owner and operator of healthcare facilities, as the impact of the virus has resulted in a massive strain throughout the healthcare system. COVID-19 is particularly dangerous among the senior population and results in heightened risk to our senior housing and skilled nursing facilities, and we continue to work diligently to implement appropriate protocols at such facilities in line with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services guidelines to limit the exposure and spread of COVID-19. However, we have experienced a decline in our occupancies at our senior housing — RIDEA facilities and integrated senior health campuses due in large part to decreased move-ins of prospective residents because of shelter in place and other quarantine restrictions. Our operators have also experienced increased costs to procure personal protective equipment and other supplies for which there are shortages and to maintain staffing levels to care for the aged population during this crisis. Managers of our RIDEA properties are evaluating their options for financial assistance utilizing programs within the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act passed by the federal government on March 27, 2020, as well as other state and local government programs. Some of our tenants within our non-RIDEA properties are also seeking financial assistance from the CARES Act through programs such as the Payroll Protection Program and deferral of payroll tax payments. However, there is no assurance that our managers and tenants will receive approval under such financial assistance programs and the ultimate impact of such relief from the CARES Act and other enacted and future legislation and regulation is uncertain. The COVID-19 pandemic has also negatively impacted the businesses of our medical office tenants, including physician practices and other medical service providers of non-essential and elective services, and their ability to pay rent on a timely basis.

40


We are closely monitoring COVID-19 developments and continuously assessing the implications to our business, residents, tenants, operating partners, managers and portfolio of investments. While we have yet to experience a material impact to our operations as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, we anticipate that this may change as the virus continues to spread. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our future results could be significant and will largely depend on future developments, including the duration of the crisis and the success of efforts to contain it, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted at this time. While impacts of COVID-19 have had an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations, we are unable to predict the full extent or nature of these impacts at this time. See the “Liquidity and Capital Resources” section below and Part II, Item 1A, Risk Factors, of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a further discussion.
Scheduled Lease Expirations
Excluding our senior housing — RIDEA facilities and our integrated senior health campuses, as of March 31, 2020, our properties were 90.7% leased and during the remainder of 2020, 5.8% of the leased GLA is scheduled to expire. Our leasing strategy focuses on negotiating renewals for leases scheduled to expire during the next twelve months. In the future, if we are unable to negotiate renewals, we will try to identify new tenants or collaborate with existing tenants who are seeking additional space to occupy. As of March 31, 2020, our remaining weighted average lease term was 7.6 years, excluding our senior housing — RIDEA facilities and our integrated senior health campuses.
Our senior housing — RIDEA facilities and integrated senior health campuses were 82.5% and 83.5% leased, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2020. Substantially all of our leases with residents at such properties are for a term of one year or less.
Results of Operations
Comparison of Three Months Ended March 31, 2020 and 2019
Our primary sources of revenue include rent and resident fees and services from our properties. Our primary expenses include property operating expenses and rental expenses. In general, we expect amounts related to our portfolio of operating properties to increase in the future based on ongoing developments of properties, as well as the result of any additional real estate and real estate-related investments we may acquire or originate.
We segregate our operations into reporting segments in order to assess the performance of our business in the same way that management reviews our performance and makes operating decisions. As of March 31, 2020, we operated through six reportable business segments: medical office buildings, hospitals, skilled nursing facilities, senior housing, senior housing — RIDEA and integrated senior health campuses.
Except where otherwise noted, the changes in our consolidated results of operations for 2020 as compared to 2019 are primarily due to the development and expansion of our portfolio of integrated senior health campuses. In addition, there are changes in our results of operations by reporting segment due to the transitioning of the operations of seven senior housing facilities within North Carolina ALF Portfolio to a RIDEA structure on December 1, 2019. As of March 31, 2020 and 2019, we owned and/or operated the following types of properties:

For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, property operating expenses primarily consisted of administration and benefits expense of $222,368,000 and $204,701,000, respectively. Integrated senior health campuses and senior housing — RIDEA facilities typically have a higher percentage of operating expenses to revenue than multi-tenant medical office buildings, hospitals, senior housing facilities and skilled nursing facilities due to the nature of RIDEA facilities where we conduct day-to-day operations. We anticipate that the percentage of operating expenses to revenue may fluctuate based on the types of property we own and/or operate in the future.

The decrease in general and administrative expense for the three months ended March 31, 2020 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019 was primarily due to the decrease in bad debt expense for our accounts receivable as a result of a change in lease accounting guidance in 2019, partially offset by an increase in asset management fees as a result of an increase in our average invested assets in 2020 as compared to 2019.
Depreciation and Amortization
For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, depreciation and amortization was $25,087,000 and $25,628,000, respectively, which primarily consisted of depreciation on our operating properties of $22,742,000 and $22,204,000, respectively, and amortization on our identified intangible assets of $1,994,000 and $3,133,000, respectively.

The increase in total interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2020, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019, was primarily related to the increase in debt balances as well as the increase in loss on fair value recognized on the derivative financial instruments, which was due to a decrease in LIBOR rates relative to our interest rate swap contracts.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our sources of funds primarily consist of operating cash flows and borrowings. In the normal course of business, our principal demands for funds are for payment of operating expenses, capital improvement expenditures, development of real estate investments, interest on our indebtedness, distributions to our stockholders and repurchases of our common stock. We estimate that we will require approximately $43,689,000 to pay interest on our outstanding indebtedness for the remainder of 2020, based on interest rates in effect as of March 31, 2020, and that we will require $68,701,000 to pay principal on our outstanding indebtedness for the remainder of 2020. We also require resources to make certain payments to our advisor and its affiliates. See Note 14, Related Party Transactions, to our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for a further discussion of our payments to our advisor and its affiliates. Generally, cash needs for such items will be met from operations and borrowings. Our total capacity to pay operating expenses, capital improvement expenditures, interest, distributions and repurchases, as well as acquire and/or develop real estate investments, is a function of our current cash position, our borrowing capacity on our lines of credit and term loans, as well as any future indebtedness that we may incur. As of March 31, 2020, our cash on hand was $44,683,000 and we had $155,621,000 available on our lines of credit and term loans.
Due to the impact the COVID-19 pandemic has had on the United States and globally, and the uncertainty of the severity and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and its effects, our board decided to take steps to protect our capital and maximize our liquidity in an effort to strengthen our long-term financial prospects by decreasing our distributions to stockholders and partially suspending our share repurchase plan. Consequently, our board approved a daily distribution rate for April and May 2020 equal to $0.000821918 per share of our common stock, which was or will be equal to an annualized distribution rate of $0.30 per share, a decrease from the annualized rate of $0.60 per share previously paid by us. See the “Distributions” section below for a further discussion. In addition, effective with respect to share repurchase requests submitted for repurchase during the second quarter 2020, on March 31, 2020 our board suspended our share repurchase plan with respect to all repurchase requests other than repurchases resulting from the death or qualifying disability of stockholders. Our board shall determine if and when it is in the best interest of our company and stockholders to reinstate our share repurchase plan.
Furthermore, subsequent to March 31, 2020, Trilogy Investors, LLC, of which we currently own 67.6%, received approximately $51,750,000 in Medicare advance payments and approximately $14,534,000 in Medicare grants through CARES Act programs in connection with its operation of integrated senior health campuses. We believe that such proceeds of cash will be sufficient to satisfy our cash requirements for the foreseeable future, and we do not anticipate a need to raise funds from other sources within the next 12 months.
A capital plan for each investment is established upon acquisition that contemplates the estimated capital needs of that investment, including costs of refurbishment, tenant improvements or other major capital expenditures. The capital plan also sets forth the anticipated sources of the necessary capital, which may include operating cash generated by the investment, capital reserves, a line of credit or other loan established with respect to the investment, other borrowings, or additional equity investments from us or joint venture partners. As of March 31, 2020, we had $12,910,000 of restricted cash in loan impounds and reserve accounts to fund a portion of such capital expenditures. The capital plan for each investment is adjusted through ongoing, regular reviews of our portfolio or as necessary to respond to unanticipated additional capital needs. Based on the budget for the properties we own as of March 31, 2020, we originally estimated that our discretionary expenditures for capital and tenant improvements could have required up to $130,695,000 for the remaining nine months of 2020. However, in light of the COVID-19 pandemic and to further preserve cash, we suspended all non-essential, discretionary expenditures for capital improvements, as well as developments, that were anticipated during 2020 throughout our real estate investment portfolio. In particular, we suspended capital expenditures that are not directly associated with the maintenance or expansion of tenant occupancy and the enhancement of net operating income. The duration of our suspension of capital expenditures and developments are uncertain and an update to the actual amounts forecasted to be expended for the remainder of the year cannot be estimated at this time.
Other Liquidity Needs
In the event that there is a shortfall in net cash available due to various factors, including, without limitation, the timing of distributions or the collection of receivables, we may seek to obtain capital to pay distributions by means of secured or unsecured debt financing through one or more third parties, or our advisor or its affiliates. There are currently no limits or restrictions on the use of proceeds from our advisor or its affiliates which would prohibit us from making the proceeds available for distribution. We may also pay distributions from cash from capital transactions, including, without limitation, the sale of one or more of our properties.
In addition, we are continuously monitoring the impact the COVID-19 pandemic is having on our business, residents, tenants, operating partners, managers and on the United States and global economies. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, there is risk and uncertainty in the financial and debt markets. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the value of our investment portfolio may be significant and its impact on our operations and liquidity will largely depend on future developments, which

44


are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted at this time, including new information which may emerge concerning the severity of the COVID-19 pandemic, the success of actions taken to contain or treat COVID-19 and reactions by consumers, companies, governmental entities and capital markets. The COVID-19 pandemic has also negatively impacted the businesses of our medical office tenants, including physician practices and other medical service providers of non-essential and elective services, and their ability to pay rent on a timely basis. To the extent that our residents, tenants, operating partners and managers continue to be impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, or by the risks disclosed in our SEC filings, this could materially disrupt our business operations.

The following summary discussion of our changes in our cash flows is based on our accompanying condensed consolidated statements of cash flows and is not meant to be an all-inclusive discussion of the changes in our cash flows for the periods presented below.
Operating Activities
For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, cash flows provided by operating activities primarily related to the cash flows provided by our property operations, offset by the payment of general and administrative expenses. See the “Results of Operations” section above for a further discussion. In general, cash flows provided by operating activities will be affected by the timing of cash receipts and payments.
Investing Activities
For the three months ended March 31, 2020, cash flows used in investing activities primarily related to our capital expenditures of $37,217,000 and our acquisition of a land parcel in the amount of $1,478,000. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, cash flows used in investing activities primarily related to our capital expenditures of $16,722,000 and 2019 property acquisitions in the amount of $16,036,000. In general, cash flows used in investing activities will be affected by the the timing of capital expenditures and development projects and the number of acquisitions we complete in future years as compared to prior years.
Financing Activities
For the three months ended March 31, 2020, cash flows provided by financing activities primarily related to net borrowings under our lines of credit and term loans in the amount of $18,500,000 and borrowings under mortgage loans payable of $8,239,000, partially offset by distributions to our common stockholders of $16,032,000 and scheduled payments on our mortgage loans payable of $3,137,000. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, cash flows provided by financing activities primarily related to net borrowings under our lines of credit and term loans in the amount of $66,001,000, partially offset by share repurchases of $36,486,000 and distributions to our common stockholders of $15,227,000. Overall, we anticipate cash flows from financing activities to decrease in the future. However, we anticipate our indebtedness to increase if we acquire additional real estate and real estate-related investments.
Distributions
Our board authorized, on a quarterly basis, a daily distribution to our stockholders of record as of the close of business on each day of the quarterly periods commencing on May 14, 2014 and ending on March 31, 2020. The distributions were calculated based on 365 days in the calendar year and were equal to $0.001643836 per share of our common stock, which was equal to an annualized distribution of $0.60 per share. The daily distributions were aggregated and paid monthly in arrears in cash or shares of our common stock pursuant to our DRIP Offerings, only from legally available funds.

45


Due to the impact the COVID-19 pandemic has had on the United States and globally, and the uncertainty of the severity and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and its effects, our board decided to take steps to protect our capital and maximize our liquidity in an effort to strengthen our long-term financial prospects by decreasing our distributions to stockholders. Consequently, our board authorized a daily distribution to our stockholders of record as of the close of business day on each day of the period commencing on April 1, 2020 and ending on May 31, 2020. The daily distributions were or will be calculated based on 365 days in the calendar year and are equal to $0.000821918 per share of our common stock, which is equal to an annualized distribution of $0.30 per share. These daily distributions were or will be aggregated and paid in cash or shares of our common stock pursuant to our DRIP Offerings monthly in arrears, only from legally available funds.
The amount of the distributions paid to our stockholders is determined by our board and is dependent on a number of factors, including funds available for payment of distributions, our financial condition, capital expenditure requirements and annual distribution requirements needed to maintain our qualification as a REIT under the Code. We have not established any limit on the amount of offering proceeds that may be used to fund distributions, except that, in accordance with our organizational documents and Maryland law, we may not make distributions that would: (i) cause us to be unable to pay our debts as they become due in the usual course of business or (ii) cause our total assets to be less than the sum of our total liabilities plus senior liquidation preferences.
The distributions paid for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, along with the amount of distributions reinvested pursuant to our DRIP Offerings, and the sources of our distributions as compared to cash flows from operations were as follows:

As of March 31, 2020, any distributions of amounts in excess of our current and accumulated earnings and profits have resulted in a return of capital to our stockholders, and all or any portion of a distribution to our stockholders may have been paid from net offering proceeds and borrowings. The payment of distributions from our net offering proceeds and borrowings have reduced the amount of capital we ultimately invested in assets and negatively impacted the amount of income available for future distributions.
As of March 31, 2020, we had an amount payable of $2,057,000 to our advisor or its affiliates primarily for asset and property management fees, which will be paid from cash flows from operations in the future as it becomes due and payable by us in the ordinary course of business consistent with our past practice. See Note 14, Related Party Transactions — Operational Stage, to our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, for a further discussion.
The distributions paid for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, along with the amount of distributions reinvested pursuant to our DRIP Offerings, and the sources of our distributions as compared to funds from operations attributable to controlling interest, or FFO, were as follows:

The payment of distributions from sources other than FFO may reduce the amount of proceeds available for investment and operations or cause us to incur additional interest expense as a result of borrowed funds. For a further discussion of FFO, a non-GAAP financial measure, including a reconciliation of our GAAP net income (loss) to FFO, see the “Funds from Operations and Modified Funds from Operations” section below.
Financing
We intend to continue to finance all or a portion of the purchase price of our investments in real estate and real estate-related investments by borrowing funds. We anticipate that our overall leverage will not exceed 45.0% of the combined fair market value of all of our properties and other real estate-related investments, as determined at the end of each calendar year. For these purposes, the market value of each asset will be equal to the contract purchase price paid for the asset or, if the asset was appraised subsequent to the date of purchase, then the market value will be equal to the value reported in the most recent independent appraisal of the asset. Our policies do not limit the amount we may borrow with respect to any individual investment. As of March 31, 2020, our aggregate borrowings were 45.2% of the combined market value of all of our real estate and real estate-related investments.
Under our charter, we have a limitation on borrowing that precludes us from borrowing in excess of 300% of our net assets without the approval of a majority of our independent directors. Net assets for purposes of this calculation are defined to be our total assets (other than intangibles), valued at cost prior to deducting depreciation, amortization, bad debt and other similar non-cash reserves, less total liabilities. Generally, the preceding calculation is expected to approximate 75.0% of the aggregate cost of our real estate and real estate-related investments before depreciation, amortization, bad debt and other similar non-cash reserves. In addition, we may incur mortgage debt and pledge some or all of our real properties as security for that debt to obtain funds to acquire additional real estate or for working capital. We may also borrow funds to satisfy the REIT tax qualification requirement that we distribute at least 90.0% of our annual taxable income, excluding net capital gains, to our stockholders. Furthermore, we may borrow if we otherwise deem it necessary or advisable to ensure that we maintain our qualification as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. As of May 15, 2020 and March 31, 2020, our leverage did not exceed 300% of the value of our net assets.
Mortgage Loans Payable, Net

Lines of Credit and Term Loans
For a discussion of our lines of credit and term loans, see Note 8, Lines of Credit and Term Loans, to our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.
REIT Requirements
In order to maintain our qualification as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, we are required to make distributions to our stockholders of at least 90.0% of our annual taxable income, excluding net capital gains. In the event that there is a shortfall in net cash available due to factors including, without limitation, the timing of such distributions or the timing of the collection of receivables, we may seek to obtain capital to pay distributions by means of secured and unsecured debt financing through one or more unaffiliated third parties. We may also pay distributions from cash from capital transactions including, without limitation, the sale of one or more of our properties or from the proceeds of our initial offering.
Commitments and Contingencies
For a discussion of our commitments and contingencies, see Note 11, Commitments and Contingencies, to our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.
Debt Service Requirements
A significant liquidity need is the payment of principal and interest on our outstanding indebtedness. As of March 31, 2020, we had $821,319,000 ($797,774,000, net of discount/premium and deferred financing costs) of fixed-rate and variable-rate mortgage loans payable outstanding secured by our properties. As of March 31, 2020, we had $834,379,000 outstanding and $155,621,000 remained available under our lines of credit and term loans. See Note 7, Mortgage Loans Payable, Net and Note 8, Lines of Credit and Term Loans, to our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.
We are required by the terms of certain loan documents to meet various financial and non-financial covenants, such as leverage ratios, net worth ratios, debt service coverage ratios and fixed charge coverage ratios. As of March 31, 2020, we were in compliance with all such covenants and requirements on our mortgage loans payable and our lines of credit and term loans.

47


The extent and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business continues to evolve, and any continued future deterioration of operations in excess of management's projections as a result of COVID-19 could impact future compliance with these covenants. If any future covenants are violated, we anticipate seeking a waiver or amending the debt covenants with the lenders when and if such event should occur. However, there can be no assurances that management will be able to effectively achieve such plans. As of March 31, 2020, the weighted average effective interest rate on our outstanding debt, factoring in our fixed-rate interest rate swaps and interest rate cap, was 3.80% per annum.
Contractual Obligations
The following table provides information with respect to: (i) the maturity and scheduled principal repayment of our secured mortgage loans payable and our lines of credit and term loans; (ii) interest payments on our mortgage loans payable, lines of credit and term loans; (iii) ground and other lease obligations; (iv) financing obligations; and (v) finance leases as of March 31, 2020:

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of March 31, 2020, we had no off-balance sheet transactions, nor do we currently have any such arrangements or obligations.
Inflation
During the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, inflation has not significantly affected our operations because of the moderate inflation rate; however, we expect to be exposed to inflation risk as income from future long-term leases will be the primary source of our cash flows from operations. There are provisions in the majority of our tenant leases that will protect us from the impact of inflation. These provisions include negotiated rental increases, reimbursement billings for operating expense pass-through charges, and real estate tax and insurance reimbursements. However, due to the long-term nature of the anticipated leases, among other factors, the leases may not re-set frequently enough to cover inflation.
Related Party Transactions
For a discussion of related party transactions, see Note 14, Related Party Transactions, to our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.
Funds from Operations and Modified Funds from Operations
Due to certain unique operating characteristics of real estate companies, the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT, an industry trade group, has promulgated a measure known as funds from operations, a non-GAAP measure, which we believe to be an appropriate supplemental performance measure to reflect the operating performance of a REIT. The use of funds from operations is recommended by the REIT industry as a supplemental performance measure, and our management uses FFO to evaluate our performance over time. FFO is not equivalent to our net income (loss) as determined under GAAP.
We define FFO, a non-GAAP measure, consistent with the standards established by the White Paper on funds from operations approved by the Board of Governors of NAREIT, or the White Paper. The White Paper defines funds from operations as net income (loss) computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains or losses from sales of certain real estate assets and impairment writedowns of certain real estate assets and investments, plus depreciation and amortization related to real estate, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. While impairment charges are excluded

48


from the calculation of FFO as described above, investors are cautioned that impairments are based on estimated future undiscounted cash flows. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures are calculated to reflect funds from operations. Our FFO calculation complies with NAREIT’s policy described above.
Historical accounting for real estate involves the use of GAAP. Any other method of accounting for real estate such as the fair value method cannot be construed to be any more accurate or relevant than the comparable methodologies of real estate valuation found in GAAP. Nevertheless, we believe that the use of FFO, which excludes the impact of real estate-related depreciation and amortization and impairments, provides a further understanding of our performance to investors and to our management, and when compared year over year, reflects the impact on our operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, general and administrative expenses and interest costs, which may not be immediately apparent from net income (loss).
However, FFO and modified funds from operations attributable to controlling interest, or MFFO, as described below, should not be construed to be more relevant or accurate than the current GAAP methodology in calculating net income (loss) or in its applicability in evaluating our operating performance. The method utilized to evaluate the value and performance of real estate under GAAP should be construed as a more relevant measure of operational performance and considered more prominently than the non-GAAP FFO and MFFO measures and the adjustments to GAAP in calculating FFO and MFFO.
The IPA, an industry trade group, has standardized a measure known as modified funds from operations, which the IPA has recommended as a supplemental performance measure for publicly registered, non-listed REITs and which we believe to be another appropriate supplemental performance measure to reflect the operating performance of a publicly registered, non-listed REIT having the characteristics described above. MFFO is not equivalent to our net income (loss) as determined under GAAP, and MFFO may not be a useful measure of the impact of long-term operating performance on value if we do not continue to operate with a limited life and targeted exit strategy, as currently intended. We believe that, because MFFO excludes expensed acquisition fees and expenses that affect our operations only in periods in which properties are acquired and that we consider more reflective of investing activities, as well as other non-operating items included in FFO, MFFO can provide, on a going forward basis, an indication of the sustainability (that is, the capacity to continue to be maintained) of our operating performance after the period in which we are acquiring our properties and once our portfolio is in place. By providing MFFO, we believe we are presenting useful information that assists investors and analysts to better assess the sustainability of our operating performance after our offering stage has been completed and our properties have been acquired. We also believe that MFFO is a recognized measure of sustainable operating performance by the publicly registered, non-listed REIT industry. Further, we believe MFFO is useful in comparing the sustainability of our operating performance after our offering stage and acquisitions are completed with the sustainability of the operating performance of other real estate companies that are not as involved in acquisition activities. Investors are cautioned that MFFO should only be used to assess the sustainability of our operating performance after our offering stage has been completed and properties have been acquired, as it excludes expensed acquisition fees and expenses that have a negative effect on our operating performance during the periods in which properties are acquired.
We define MFFO, a non-GAAP measure, consistent with the Practice Guideline issued by the IPA in November 2010. The Practice Guideline defines modified funds from operations as funds from operations further adjusted for the following items included in the determination of GAAP net income (loss): acquisition fees and expenses; amounts relating to deferred rent and amortization of above- and below-market leases and liabilities (which are adjusted in order to reflect such payments from a GAAP accrual basis to closer to an expected to be received cash basis of disclosing the rent and lease payments); accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums on debt investments; mark-to-market adjustments included in net income (loss); gains or losses included in net income (loss) from the extinguishment or sale of debt, hedges, foreign exchange, derivatives or securities holdings where trading of such holdings is not a fundamental attribute of the business plan; unrealized gains or losses resulting from consolidation from, or deconsolidation to, equity accounting; and after adjustments for consolidated and unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures, with such adjustments calculated to reflect modified funds from operations on the same basis. The accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums on debt investments, unrealized gains and losses on hedges, foreign exchange, derivatives or securities holdings, unrealized gains and losses resulting from consolidations, as well as other listed cash flow adjustments are adjustments made to net income (loss) in calculating cash flows from operations and, in some cases, reflect gains or losses which are unrealized and may not ultimately be realized. We are responsible for managing interest rate, hedge and foreign exchange risk, and we do not rely on another party to manage such risk. In as much as interest rate hedges will not be a fundamental part of our operations, we believe it is appropriate to exclude such gains and losses in calculating MFFO, as such gains and losses are based on market fluctuations and may not be directly related or attributable to our operations.

49


Our MFFO calculation complies with the IPA’s Practice Guideline described above. In calculating MFFO, we exclude acquisition related expenses (which include gains or losses on contingent consideration), amortization of above- and below-market leases, amortization of loan and closing costs, change in deferred rent, fair value adjustments of derivative financial instruments, gains or losses on foreign currency transactions and the adjustments of such items related to unconsolidated entities and noncontrolling interests. The other adjustments included in the IPA’s Practice Guideline are not applicable to us for the periods presented in the table below.
Further, under GAAP, certain contemplated non-cash fair value and other non-cash adjustments are considered operating non-cash adjustments to net income (loss) in determining cash flows from operations. We view fair value adjustments of derivatives and gains and losses from dispositions of assets as items which are unrealized and may not ultimately be realized or as items which are not reflective of on-going operations and are therefore typically adjusted for when assessing operating performance. By excluding such charges that may reflect anticipated and unrealized gains or losses, we believe MFFO provides useful supplemental information.
Our management uses MFFO and the adjustments used to calculate it in order to evaluate our performance against other publicly registered, non-listed REITs which intend to have limited lives with short and defined acquisition periods and targeted exit strategies shortly thereafter. As noted above, MFFO may not be a useful measure of the impact of long-term operating performance if we do not continue to operate in this manner. We believe that our use of MFFO and the adjustments used to calculate it allow us to present our performance in a manner that reflects certain characteristics that are unique to publicly registered, non-listed REITs, such as their limited life, limited and defined acquisition period and targeted exit strategy, and hence, that the use of such measures may be useful to investors.
Presentation of this information is intended to provide useful information to investors as they compare the operating performance of different REITs, although it should be noted that not all REITs calculate funds from operations and modified funds from operations the same way, so comparisons with other REITs may not be meaningful. Furthermore, FFO and MFFO are not necessarily indicative of cash flow available to fund cash needs and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) as an indication of our performance, as an alternative to cash flows from operations, which is an indication of our liquidity, or indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs including our ability to make distributions to our stockholders. FFO and MFFO should be reviewed in conjunction with other measurements as an indication of our performance. MFFO may be useful in assisting management and investors in assessing the sustainability of operating performance in future operating periods, and in particular, after the offering and acquisition stages are complete. FFO and MFFO are not useful measures in evaluating net asset value because impairments are taken into account in determining net asset value but not in determining FFO and MFFO.
Neither the SEC, NAREIT nor any other regulatory body has passed judgment on the acceptability of the adjustments that we use to calculate FFO or MFFO. In the future, the SEC, NAREIT or another regulatory body may decide to standardize the allowable adjustments across the publicly registered, non-listed REIT industry and we would have to adjust our calculation and characterization of FFO or MFFO.

___________
(1)
In evaluating investments in real estate, we differentiate the costs to acquire the investment from the operations derived from the investment. Such information would be comparable only for publicly registered, non-listed REITs that have completed their acquisition activity and have other similar operating characteristics. By excluding expensed acquisition related expenses, we believe MFFO provides useful supplemental information that is comparable for each type of real estate investment and is consistent with management’s analysis of the investing and operating performance of our properties. Acquisition fees and expenses include payments to our advisor or its affiliates and third parties.
(2)
Under GAAP, above- and below-market leases are assumed to diminish predictably in value over time and amortized, similar to depreciation and amortization of other real estate-related assets that are excluded from FFO. However, because real estate values and market lease rates historically rise or fall with market conditions, including inflation, interest rates, the business cycle, unemployment and consumer spending, we believe that by excluding charges relating to the amortization of above- and below-market leases, MFFO may provide useful supplemental information on the performance of the real estate.
(3)
Under GAAP, direct closing costs are amortized over the term of our debt security investment as an adjustment to the yield on our debt security investment. This may result in income recognition that is different than the contractual cash flows under our debt security investment. By adjusting for the amortization of the closing costs related to our debt security investment, MFFO may provide useful supplemental information on the realized economic impact of our debt security investment terms, providing insight on the expected contractual cash flows of such debt security investment, and aligns results with our analysis of operating performance.
(4)
Under GAAP, as a lessor, rental revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the related lease (including rent holidays). As a lessee, we record amortization of right-of-use assets and accretion of lease liabilities for our operating leases. This may result in income or expense recognition that is significantly different than the underlying

51


contract terms. By adjusting such amounts, MFFO may provide useful supplemental information on the realized economic impact of lease terms, providing insight on the expected contractual cash flows of such lease terms, and aligns results with our analysis of operating performance.
(5)
Under GAAP, we are required to include changes in fair value of our derivative financial instruments in the determination of net income or loss. We believe that adjusting for the change in fair value of our derivative financial instruments to arrive at MFFO is appropriate because such adjustments may not be reflective of on-going operations and reflect unrealized impacts on value based only on then current market conditions, although they may be based upon general market conditions. The need to reflect the change in fair value of our derivative financial instruments is a continuous process and is analyzed on a quarterly basis in accordance with GAAP.
(6)
We believe that adjusting for the change in foreign currency exchange rates provides useful information because such adjustments may not be reflective of on-going operations.
(7)
Includes all adjustments to eliminate the unconsolidated entities’ share or noncontrolling interests’ share, as applicable, of the adjustments described in notes (1) (6) above to convert our FFO to MFFO.
Net Operating Income
Net operating income, or NOI, is a non-GAAP financial measure that is defined as net income (loss), computed in accordance with GAAP, generated from properties before general and administrative expenses, acquisition related expenses, depreciation and amortization, interest expense, impairment of real estate investments, loss from unconsolidated entities, foreign currency gain or loss, other income and income tax benefit (expense).
NOI is not equivalent to our net income (loss) as determined under GAAP and may not be a useful measure in measuring operational income or cash flows. Furthermore, NOI is not necessarily indicative of cash flow available to fund cash needs and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) as an indication of our performance, as an alternative to cash flows from operations, as an indication of our liquidity, or indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs including our ability to make distributions to our stockholders. NOI should not be construed to be more relevant or accurate than the current GAAP methodology in calculating net income (loss) or in its applicability in evaluating our operating performance. Investors are also cautioned that NOI should only be used to assess our operational performance in periods in which we have not incurred or accrued any acquisition related expenses.
We believe that NOI is an appropriate supplemental performance measure to reflect the performance of our operating assets because NOI excludes certain items that are not associated with the operations of the properties. We believe that NOI is a widely accepted measure of comparative operating performance in the real estate community. However, our use of the term NOI may not be comparable to that of other real estate companies as they may have different methodologies for computing this amount.
To facilitate understanding of this financial measure, the following is a reconciliation of net income or loss, which is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, to NOI for the periods presented below:

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Market risk includes risks that arise from changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices, equity prices and other market changes that affect market sensitive instruments. In pursuing our business plan, we expect that the primary market risk to which we will be exposed is interest rate risk. There were no material changes in our market risk exposures, or in the methods we use to manage market risk, from those that were provided for in our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the SEC on March 26, 2020.
Interest Rate Risk
We are exposed to the effects of interest rate changes primarily as a result of long-term debt used to acquire properties and other permitted investments. Our interest rate risk is monitored using a variety of techniques. Our interest rate risk management objectives are to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings, prepayment penalties and cash flows and to lower overall borrowing costs while taking into account variable interest rate risk. To achieve our objectives, we may borrow or lend at fixed or variable rates.
We have entered into, and in the future may continue to enter into, derivative financial instruments such as interest rate swaps and interest rate caps in order to mitigate our interest rate risk on a related financial instrument, and for which we have not and may not elect hedge accounting treatment. We have not elected to apply hedge accounting treatment to these derivatives; therefore, changes in the fair value of interest rate derivative financial instruments are recorded as a component of interest expense in gain or loss in fair value of derivative financial instruments in our accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). As of March 31, 2020, our interest rate cap and interest rate swaps are recorded in other assets, net and security deposits, prepaid rent and other liabilities, in our accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets at their fair value of $3,000 and $(12,157,000), respectively. We do not enter into derivative transactions for speculative purposes.
As of March 31, 2020, the table below presents the principal amounts and weighted average interest rates by year of expected maturity to evaluate the expected cash flows and sensitivity to interest rate changes.

Debt Security Investment, Net
As of March 31, 2020, the net carrying value of our debt security investment was $73,476,000. As we expect to hold our debt security investment to maturity and the amounts due under such debt security investment would be limited to the outstanding principal balance and any accrued and unpaid interest, we do not expect that fluctuations in interest rates, and the resulting change in fair value of our debt security investment, would have a significant impact on our operations. See Note 15, Fair Value Measurements, to our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, for a discussion of the fair value of our investment in a held-to-maturity debt security. The effective interest rate on our debt security investment was 4.24% per annum as of March 31, 2020.

53


Mortgage Loans Payable, Net and Lines of Credit and Term Loans
Mortgage loans payable were $821,319,000 ($797,774,000, net of discount/premium and deferred financing costs) as of March 31, 2020. As of March 31, 2020, we had 58 fixed-rate mortgage loans payable and 11 variable-rate mortgage loans payable with effective interest rates ranging from 2.45% to 6.08% per annum and a weighted average effective interest rate of 3.82%. In addition, as of March 31, 2020, we had $834,379,000 outstanding under our lines of credit and term loans, at a weighted average interest rate of 3.24% per annum.
As of March 31, 2020, the weighted average effective interest rate on our outstanding debt, factoring in our fixed-rate interest rate swaps and interest rate cap, was 3.80% per annum. An increase in the variable interest rate on our variable-rate mortgage loans payable and lines of credit and term loans constitutes a market risk. As of March 31, 2020, we have a fixed-rate interest rate cap on one of our variable-rate mortgage loans payable and two fixed-rate interest rate swaps on one of our lines of credit and term loans; an increase in the variable interest rate thereon would have no effect on our overall annual interest expense. As of March 31, 2020, a 0.50% increase in the market rates of interest would have increased our overall annualized interest expense on all of our other variable-rate mortgage loans payable and lines of credit and term loans by $2,859,000, or 4.26% of total annualized interest expense on our mortgage loans payable and lines of credit and term loans. See Note 7, Mortgage Loans Payable, Net, and Note 8, Lines of Credit and Term Loans, to our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.
Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk
Foreign currency exchange rate risk is the possibility that our financial results could be better or worse than planned because of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Based solely on our results for the three months ended March 31, 2020, if foreign currency exchange rates were to increase or decrease by 1.00%, our net income from these investments would decrease or increase, as applicable, by approximately $5,000 for the same period.
Other Market Risk
In addition to changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates, the value of our future investments is subject to fluctuations based on changes in local and regional economic conditions and changes in the creditworthiness of tenants, which may affect our ability to refinance our debt if necessary.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to us, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, we recognize that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, as ours are designed to do, and we necessarily are required to apply our judgment in evaluating whether the benefits of the controls and procedures that we adopt outweigh their costs.
As required by Rules 13a-15(b) and 15d-15(b) of the Exchange Act, an evaluation as of March 31, 2020 was conducted under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures, as of March 31, 2020, were effective at the reasonable assurance level.
(b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting. There were no changes in internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2020 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
None.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
The use of the words “we,” “us” or “our” refers to Griffin-American Healthcare REIT III, Inc. and its subsidiaries, including Griffin-American Healthcare REIT III Holdings, LP, except where otherwise noted.
There were no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the SEC on March 26, 2020, except as noted below.
We have not had sufficient cash available from operations to pay distributions, and therefore, we have paid a portion of distributions from the net proceeds of our initial offering and borrowings, and in the future, may continue to pay distributions from borrowings or from other sources in anticipation of future cash flows. Any such distributions may reduce the amount of capital we ultimately invest in assets and may negatively impact the value of our stockholders’ investment.
We have used the net proceeds from our initial offering, borrowings and certain fees payable to our advisor which have been waived, and in the future, may use borrowed funds or other sources, to pay cash distributions to our stockholders, which may reduce the amount of proceeds available for investment and operations, cause us to incur additional interest expense as a result of borrowed funds or cause subsequent investors to experience dilution. Further, if the aggregate amount of cash distributed in any given year exceeds the amount of our current and accumulated earnings and profits, the excess amount will be deemed a return of capital. Therefore, distributions payable to our stockholders may partially include a return of capital, rather than a return on capital, and we have paid a portion of our distributions from the net proceeds of our initial offering. We have not established any limit on the amount of net proceeds from our initial offering or borrowings that may be used to fund distributions, except that, in accordance with our organizational documents and Maryland law, we may not make distributions that would: (i) cause us to be unable to pay our debts as they become due in the usual course of business; or (ii) cause our total assets to be less than the sum of our total liabilities plus senior liquidation preferences. The actual amount and timing of distributions is determined by our board, in its sole discretion and typically depends on the amount of funds available for distribution, which will depend on items such as our financial condition, current and projected capital expenditure requirements, tax considerations and annual distribution requirements needed to maintain our qualification as a REIT. As a result, our distribution rate and payment frequency may vary from time to time.
Prior to March 31, 2020, our board authorized, on a quarterly basis, a daily distribution to our stockholders of record as of the close of business on each day of the quarterly periods commencing on May 14, 2014 and ending on March 31, 2020. The distributions were calculated based on 365 days in the calendar year and were equal to $0.001643836 per share of our common stock, which was equal to an annualized distribution of $0.60 per share. The daily distributions were aggregated and paid monthly in arrears in cash or shares of our common stock pursuant to our DRIP Offerings, only from legally available funds.
Due to the impact the COVID-19 pandemic has had on the United States and globally, and the uncertainty of the severity and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and its effects, our board decided to take steps to protect our capital and maximize our liquidity in an effort to strengthen our long-term financial prospects by decreasing our distributions to stockholders. Consequently, our board authorized a daily distribution to our stockholders of record as of the close of business day on each day of the period commencing on April 1, 2020 and ending on May 31, 2020. The daily distributions were or will be calculated based on 365 days in the calendar year and are equal to $0.000821918 per share of our common stock, which is equal to an annualized distribution of $0.30 per share. These daily distributions were or will be aggregated and paid in cash or shares of our common stock pursuant to our DRIP Offerings monthly in arrears, only from legally available funds.

As of March 31, 2020, any distributions of amounts in excess of our current and accumulated earnings and profits have resulted in a return of capital to our stockholders, and all or any portion of a distribution to our stockholders may have been paid from net offering proceeds and borrowings. The payment of distributions from our net offering proceeds and borrowings have reduced the amount of capital we ultimately invested in assets and negatively impacted the amount of income available for future distributions.
As of March 31, 2020, we had an amount payable of $2,057,000 to our advisor or its affiliates primarily for asset and property management fees, which will be paid from cash flows from operations in the future as it becomes due and payable by us in the ordinary course of business consistent with our past practice. See Note 14, Related Party Transactions — Operational Stage, to our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, for a further discussion.

The declaration, amount and payment of future cash distributions to our stockholders are subject to uncertainty due to current market conditions.
All distributions will be declared at the discretion of our board and will depend on our earnings, our financial condition, REIT distribution requirements, and other factors as our board may deem relevant from time to time. The economic impact resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic could adversely affect our ability to pay distributions to our stockholders. Our board is under no obligation or requirement to declare a distribution and will continue to assess our distribution rate on an ongoing basis, as market conditions and our financial position continue to evolve. We cannot assure our stockholders that we will achieve results that will allow us to pay distributions on our common stock or that the current level of distributions will be maintained or increased.

The estimated value per share of our common stock may not be an accurate reflection of fair value of our assets and liabilities and likely will not represent the amount of net proceeds that would result if we were liquidated or dissolved or completed a merger or other sale of our company.
On October 3, 2019, our board, at the recommendation of the audit committee of our board, comprised solely of independent directors, unanimously approved and established an updated estimated per share NAV of our common stock of $9.40. We are providing this updated estimated per share NAV to assist broker-dealers in connection with their obligations under FINRA Rule 2231, with respect to customer account statements. The valuation was performed in accordance with the methodology provided in the Practice Guideline issued by the IPA in April 2013, in addition to guidance from the SEC.
The updated estimated per share NAV was determined after consultation with our advisor and an independent third-party valuation firm, the engagement of which was approved by the audit committee of our board. FINRA rules provide no guidance on the methodology an issuer must use to determine its estimated per share NAV. As with any valuation methodology, our independent valuation firm’s methodology is based upon a number of estimates and assumptions that may not be accurate or complete. Different parties with different assumptions and estimates could derive a different estimated per share NAV, and these differences could be significant.
The updated estimated per share NAV was not audited or reviewed by our independent registered public accounting firm and does not represent the fair value of our assets or liabilities according to GAAP. In addition, the updated estimated per share NAV is an estimate as of a given point in time and the value of our shares will fluctuate over time as a result of, among other things, developments related to individual assets and changes in the real estate and capital markets. Accordingly, with respect to the updated estimated per share NAV, we can give no assurance that:
a stockholder would be able to resell his or her shares at our updated estimated per share NAV;
a stockholder would ultimately realize distributions per share equal to our updated estimated per share NAV upon liquidation of our assets and settlement of our liabilities or a sale of the company;
our shares of common stock would trade at our updated estimated per share NAV on a national securities exchange;
an independent third-party appraiser or other third-party valuation firm, other than the third-party valuation firm engaged by our board to assist in its determination of the updated estimated per share NAV, would agree with our estimated per share NAV; or
the methodology used to estimate our updated per share NAV would be acceptable to FINRA or comply with reporting requirements under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, the Code, other applicable law, or the applicable provisions of a retirement plan or individual retirement account.
Further, the updated estimated per share NAV is based on the estimated value of our assets less the estimated value of our liabilities, divided by the number of shares outstanding on a fully diluted basis, calculated as of June 30, 2019, prior to the reported emergence of COVID-19 in the United States. We are continuously monitoring the impact the COVID-19 pandemic is having on our business, residents, tenants, operating partners, managers and on the United States and global economies. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our portfolio of investments may be significant and will largely depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted at this time, including new information which may emerge concerning the severity of the COVID-19 pandemic, the success of actions taken to contain or treat COVID-19, and reactions by consumers, companies, governmental entities and capital markets. Therefore, although we intend to publish an updated estimated per share NAV on an annual basis, we may be required to reevaluate the estimated per share NAV sooner if the COVID-19 pandemic has a material adverse impact on us, our tenants, our operators, our managers or our portfolio of investments.
For a full description of the methodologies used to value our assets and liabilities in connection with the calculation of the updated estimated per share NAV, see our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on October 4, 2019.
A high concentration of our properties in a particular geographic area would magnify the effects of downturns in that geographic area.
We have a concentration of properties in particular geographic areas; therefore, any adverse situation that disproportionately effects one of those areas would have a magnified adverse effect on our portfolio. As of May 15, 2020, properties located in Indiana and Ohio accounted for approximately 38.3% and 10.3%, respectively, of our total property portfolio’s annualized base rent or annualized net operating income. Accordingly, there is a geographic concentration of risk subject to fluctuations in such state’s economy.

Our results of operations, our ability to pay distributions to our stockholders and our ability to dispose of our investments are subject to international, national and local economic factors we cannot control or predict.
Our results of operations are subject to the risks of an international or national economic slowdown or downturn and other changes in international, national and local economic conditions. The following factors may have affected and may continue to affect income from our properties, our ability to acquire and dispose of properties, and yields from our properties:
poor economic times may result in defaults by tenants of our properties due to bankruptcy, lack of liquidity, or operational failures. We may provide rent concessions, tenant improvement expenditures or reduced rental rates to maintain or increase occupancy levels;
fluctuations in property values as a result of increases or decreases in supply and demand, occupancies and rental rates may cause the properties that we acquire to decrease in value. Consequently, we may not be able to recover the carrying amount of our properties, which may require us to recognize an impairment charge or record a loss on sale in earnings;
reduced values of our properties may limit our ability to dispose of assets at attractive prices or to obtain debt financing secured by our properties and may reduce the availability of unsecured loans;
the value and liquidity of our short-term investments and cash deposits could be reduced as a result of a deterioration of the financial condition of the institutions that hold our cash deposits or the institutions or assets in which we have made short-term investments, the dislocation of the markets for our short-term investments, increased volatility in market rates for such investment or other factors;
our lenders under a line of credit could refuse to fund their financing commitment to us or could fail and we may not be able to replace the financing commitment of such lender on favorable terms, or at all;
increases in index rates and lender spreads or other regulatory or market factors affecting the banking and commercial mortgage-backed securities industries may increase overall borrowing costs;
one or more counterparties to our interest rate swaps could default on their obligations to us or could fail, increasing the risk that we may not realize the benefits of these instruments;
constricted access to credit may result in tenant defaults or non-renewals under leases;
layoffs may lead to a lower demand for medical services and cause vacancies to increase and a lack of future population and job growth may make it difficult to maintain or increase occupancy levels;
future disruptions in the financial markets, deterioration in economic conditions or a public health crisis, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, have resulted and may continue to result in lower occupancy in our facilities, increased vacancy rates for commercial real estate due to generally lower demand for rentable space, as well as oversupply of rentable space;
governmental actions and initiatives, including risks associated with the impact of a prolonged government shutdown or budgetary reductions or impasses; and
increased insurance premiums, real estate taxes or utilities or other expenses may reduce funds available for distribution or, to the extent such increases are passed through to tenants, may lead to tenant defaults. Also, any such increased expenses may make it difficult to increase rents to tenants on turnover, which may limit our ability to increase our returns.
The length and severity of any economic slowdown or downturn cannot be predicted at this time. Our results of operations, our ability to continue to pay distributions to our stockholders and our ability to dispose of our investments have been and we expect that we may continue to be negatively impacted to the extent an economic slowdown or downturn is prolonged or becomes more severe.
The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely impacted our business and financial results, and the ultimate impact will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including the scope and duration of the pandemic and actions taken by governmental authorities in response to the pandemic.
In December 2019, COVID-19 was identified in Wuhan, China. This virus continues to spread globally including in the United States. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have experienced a decline in occupancy rates at our senior housing — RIDEA facilities and integrated senior health campuses. In addition, due to the shelter in place and quarantine restrictions, our property values, net operating income and revenues may decline, and our tenants, operating partners and managers may be limited in their ability to properly maintain our properties, generate income and/or service patients and residents. Additionally, the public perception of a risk of a pandemic or media coverage of the COVID-19 pandemic and related deaths or confirmed cases, or public perception of health risks linked to perceived regional healthcare safety in our senior housing or skilled nursing

facilities, particularly if focused on regions in which our properties are located, may adversely affect us by reducing occupancy demand at our facilities. In addition, the COVID-19 pandemic has adversely impacted and may continue to adversely impact the ability of our medical office tenants, many of whom have been restricted in their ability to work, to pay their rent as and when due. We have also held discussions with our tenants, operating partners and managers and they have expressed their general concern about the uncertain economic condition. We believe that it is premature to determine the magnitude of the impact at this point.
Issues related to financing also are exacerbated in times of significant dislocation in the financial markets, such as those being experienced now related to the COVID-19 pandemic. It is possible our lenders will become unwilling or unable to provide us with financing, and we may not be able to replace the financing commitment of such lender on favorable terms, or at all. In addition, if the regulatory capital requirements imposed on our lenders change, they may be required to significantly increase the cost of the financing that they provide to us. As a result, our lenders may revise the terms of such financings to us, which could adversely impact our liquidity and our ability to make payments on our existing obligations.
Furthermore, we and our co-sponsors and their employees that provide services to us rely on processes and activities that largely depend on people and technology, including access to information technology systems as well as information, applications, payment systems and other services provided by third parties. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, business practices have been modified with all or a portion of our co-sponsors’ employees working remotely from their homes to have our operations uninterrupted as much as possible. Additionally, technology in such employees’ homes may not be as robust as in our co-sponsors’ offices and could cause the networks, information systems, applications and other tools available to such employees to be more limited or less reliable than in our co-sponsors’ offices. The continuation of these work-from-home measures may introduce increased cybersecurity risk. These cybersecurity risks include greater phishing, malware, and other cybersecurity attacks, vulnerability to disruptions of our information technology infrastructure and telecommunications systems for remote operations, increased risk of unauthorized dissemination of confidential information, greater risk of a security breach resulting in destruction or misuse of valuable information and potential impairment of our ability to perform certain functions, all of which could expose us to risks of data or financial loss, litigation and liability and could disrupt our operations and the operations of any impacted third-parties.
The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic impacts our business will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted at this time, including new information which may emerge concerning the severity of the COVID-19 pandemic and the actions to contain the COVID-19 pandemic or treat its impact, among others. We expect the significance of the COVID-19 pandemic, including the extent of its effect on our financial and operational results, to be dictated by, among other things, its duration, the success of efforts to contain it and the impact of actions taken in response. For instance, recent government initiatives, such as the Payroll Protection Program and deferral of payroll tax payments program within the CARES Act, enacted to provide substantial financial support to businesses could provide helpful mitigation for us and certain of our tenants, operating partners and managers. The ultimate impact of the CARES Act, however, is not yet clear. While we are not able at this time to estimate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our financial and operational results, it could be material.
